what could i possibly have? seems like acid reflux?
ok so im 14 years old. and i’ve been reading the symptoms of acid reflux and it sounds like what i have. but my doctor says that im kind of young to have acid reflux or heartburn. im really gassy and i have what seems like random heartburn, where occasionally i get this pang of a burning sensation in my chest. i find that when i try to swallow my own saliva, it doesnt go down completely. plus it feels like im going to throw up (its felt like this for the past week or so) but i never do. i find it hard to breathe kind of also. my nose is kind of stuffy. i cant fall asleep because i feel so weird. what could this possibly be? could it actually be acid reflux? or something else?
once i fall asleep, i stay asleep for a normal amount of time. i havent eaten anything acidic to initiate this. i honestly dont know WHAT i have or what caused it.
oh and also: do you have any cures for this if you do know what it is?

no,you’re not too young to have gerds/gastric esophagus reflux disease..and there are many meds to help.if that’s what you have..avoid spicy foods,sodas & see how you feel eating a bland diet..If you still feel bad then have your mom take you back to your Dr or even better a new one.Let him know you’ve been eating bland foods & still have the same symptoms hon..
Then again,you may have allergies,perhaps both. so do get checked out,ok
You are not too young, my son had problems when he was 7yrs and had to be on medication. Sounds like reflux to me.
