@vfparker...I've had similar problems after eating. My asthma and bronchiectasis are caused by acid reflux which was determined in part to be caused by a hiatal hernia and opening in that area. Fundiplication surgery fixed it and I was free from exacerbations for 6 years. It was great! I still cleared my lungs every day with nebulizing and postural drainage. Last year the trouble started again. Had my Endoscopy yesterday and there is a small hernia. I hope to have surgery again and another 6 years of good health! My pulmonologist will have to convince GI people it is needed now. You may want to have an evaluation by the Gastro people. Good luck.

Oh wow. Thanks for the feedback. I am scheduled for Univ of MI for Michigan Medicine Otolaryngology Clinic which is ENT. I will certainly ask about that. I have coughed so much my ribs hurt from wrenching. I am anxious to get relief and to the bottom of this.
