[RolandasPašilis]

Thank you for the information. I used to think that dysphagia was a psychological problem but now I understand that it can be different. I have stomach problems but I didn't know it could be related to dysphagia. I was pleasantly surprised when the dysphagia stopped bothering me after I started taking vitamin D3.

In the past Ive had heart palpitations after meals, breathing problems, dizziness, coughing up clear mucus and lightheaded. Did alot of blood test but doctors didn’t find anything. Years past and I started to put on a lot of weight. I went from 184 pounds two 248. I started to get really sick in March, symptoms include: gerd, weight loss, feeling full after eating really small amount, indigestion, ear pain, eye pain, regurgitation, always burping etc.
I was diagnosed with Hiatus Hernia in June. Omeprazole wasn’t helping im now on nexium for 2 months now. Im really depressed reading these comments make me feel good and bad. I hope we get the help and guidance we need. Ohh and im only 23 at 210 pounds atm.
