You might have GERD. Stomach acid irritates the lungs causing breathing issues. Tell the doctor you experience that discomfort when eating and you are having trouble taking a full breath. Ask doctor about trying Omeprazole.
Can't say for sure but this sounds like acid reflux. It happened right after a stressful time and you have digestive issues. See a doc but in the interim there are tons of easy things you can do for acid reflex. Fruits and vegetables if your digestion allows, especially cucumbers, over the counter medications like Tums, mineral water etc. Before you do anything google it. Google symptoms of acid reflux and natural remedies and see if you can find relief. Earthclinic.com is a good website. I'd also google magnesium deficiency. Any calcium (Tums are calcium) should be balanced with magnesium. For some, acid reflux can be remedied by drinking more water. Start slow...drinking too much or too fast will cause more harm than good. Google it. Find what works for you. Magnesium worked for me. Good luck.
