Acid Reflux/ GERD - #19649

Gladys

Why do i feel like I'm short of breath after eating? I usually eat chicken, pork lean meat and fish. I usually stand up or walk around after eating but I always feel short of breath. Sometimes, the food that the doctor tell me that is a trigger for acid reflux does not affect me but the food that is good for my acid reflux sometimes a trigger and give me a slight shortness in breath/ heaviness in chest. I already stopped taking PPIs because it has no effect on me. I am just taking alkaline water (ph9). What else can I do to prevent shortness of breath after eating? I can't inhale more deeply anymore. My chest hurts when I inhale deeply. Only half a deep breath is all I can do when breathing through nose and I'm having a hard time doing diapraghm breathing. I've already had a chest xray and the results are all good.

Hi Galdys,

I'm sorry to hear about your breathing difficulties. 

1. How long have you been experiencing this shortness of breath after eating, and does it occur after every meal or only certain types of food?
2. Have you noticed any specific patterns with the foods that cause the shortness of breath? Are there any particular times or situations when it worsens (e.g., stress, certain times of day)?
3. Are you experiencing any other symptoms like heartburn, bloating, or nausea, which might indicate digestive issues or an underlying condition?

We called this condition as ajirna. In this condition there is reduce digestion ,we call it as reduce agni. So whatever you are going to eat which is heavy specially non-veg ,it's very difficult for your body to digest it and hence you are getting all the symptoms. So you must focus on eating boiled moong/ moong dal, rice(which are >1 yr old), warm water for 7 days and avoid everything .Stick to this diet and you will find improvement in a day or two.
