I've been having really bad acidity, and it turned into cramps and watery diarrhea last night. It even happened twice at night, and now today, it's just been non-stop diarrhea and a constant headache. I'm kind of worried about what's going on. Any idea what might be causing this and what I should do?

View allI've been having some trouble with my breathing lately and went for a lung X-ray, which came back normal. I also had an endoscopy, and the report mentioned issues like 13rd lower oesophagitis, lax cardia, and pangastritis. It also noted mild erythema in the stomach's fundus, body, and antrum. I'm trying to understand what all this means. Is this something that might lead to cancer? And how could something going on with my stomach be causing me shortness of breath? I'd really appreciate any insight or advice you might have.
If your symptoms of shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing, or chest discomfort persist or worsen, its important to seek medical attention. A gastroenterologist may need to monitor your condition, and if necessary, perform further investigations such as a 24-hour pH study to assess acid reflux or endoscopic ultrasound to evaluate stomach issues more thoroughly. gastritis and acid reflux can contribute to your symptoms of shortness of breath, these conditions are manageable with the right medications and lifestyle changes. Addressing your stomach issues through medication and lifestyle modifications should help alleviate your symptoms over time.

I'm dealing with GERD issues and sometimes it feels like my breath gets stuck. To keep an eye on things, I've started using a pulse oximeter daily to check my oxygen level. But here's the thing, I'm getting some really weird readings. It starts at 98 or 99, but then after 20 to 30 seconds, it suddenly drops to numbers like 79, 89, or even 60, before going back up to 98 or 94. These abnormal readings only last for about 3 to 4 seconds. Other than this sensation like somethings stuck, I'm generally active and dont have other major issues. Should I be concerned about these fluctuating numbers, or is this normal with a pulse oximeter? What's going on?
Spirometry and pulmonary function tests is advised to the patient.
