Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Amber, you seem very knowledgable on the subject of shortness of breath in relation to a hiatal hernia.
Is this a situation you’ve had to deal with personally? Can you give members some more information on what worked for you?

What is happening is simply excess stomach or intestinal gas ( or in same cases it’s the matter of sensitivity not necessarily the excess) is triggering vagus nerve response . Any GI condition causing bloating can trigger it. In most people on this forum it’s HH. Surgery to fix HH in those cases, doesn’t usually work because it causes so called bloat syndrome and only adds up to the problem.
