I've been having these concerning symptoms lately and I'm not sure what's going on. I was sleeping and suddenly woke up feeling dizzy, short of breath, and with some gas problems that caused a prickling pain in my chest. After that, I couldn't sleep and my body feels really weak, and the dizziness hasn't gone away. I looked it up on Google and came across GERD and acid reflux, which have similar symptoms. Could you help me figure out what this might be?

I'm having some gas issues lately and after I work out, I've been getting this pinpoint pain on the left side of my chest. It first happened a couple of weeks ago and again yesterday. The pain wasn't super strong, but it was there, and I also had some trouble breathing and felt a bit nauseous. What could be going on?

I'm struggling with chronic constipation, and my doctor advised me to take Pegred solution for three months. I've been using it on and off for over four years now. Lately, for the past month or so, I'm dealing with back pain, feeling weak, tired, sleepy during the day, and having issues with vomiting and indigestion. Can you help me understand what's happening? Do you have any suggestions for other medications for constipation?

You need to consult and get yourself examined to find out the cause for chronic constipation.
