Question 1

I'm experiencing a lot of burping and I seem to get short of breath. When I take an antacid and the gas goes away, my breathlessness seems to improve. Could GERD or the excessive burping be causing this breathlessness? It's a bit worrying, and I'd love to understand what's going on.

Question 3

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been dealing with this pain on the right side of her chest for a couple of weeks now. We had an ultrasound and X-ray done, and the doctor mentioned something about liver enlargement and fluid in her lower lungs. The reports also showed WBC lymphocytes at 20 and neutrophils at 76, plus there's an infection in her urine. We've tried different medications, but her pain hasn't gotten much better. What should we do for treatment? Any advice would be really appreciated.
