Good morning! Yes I have seen a GI specialist. When all this initially started they diagnosed me with Vocal Cord Dysfunction along with the GERD. I've been on proton pump for almost 4 months now. The vocal cord has greatly improved but I have the SOB all the time. Everything turns out normal, oxygen nothing on my xrays. So they put me Setrilen for Anxiety. Seems to take the edge off but still happens. Never been an anxious person but it says that protocon pumps can cause you to be anxious? Just ready to be my old self and full of energy, this has hampered my life greatly.
