Need Medication For Uneasiness Due To Breathing

Hi have had breathing problems especially when lying down. My stomach is very distended. I am on omeprazole and renitidine as my GP thinks I have acid reflux. My breathing can get bad and I feel very dizzy. I find it hard to sleep as I struggle to breathe. It is not asthma and my heart is fine. What could it be.

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
As your having acid peptic disease, the reflux of acid is causing all these symptoms. As your doctor has prescribed the medicines to reduce gastritis and reflux of acid your symptoms will improve but you need to take this treatment for atleast 1 month.

In addition to this you need to change your life style by having good dietary practices like not eating hot and spicy food, taking food regularly, avoid stress, avoid taking NSAIDs and avoid smoking and alcohol if any.

The symptoms of uneasiness breathlessness will improve with the medications prescribed by your doctor and following above remedies.
Thank you.
