Hi @sillybean! When I first got tests done back in 2012, a hiatal hernia was something discovered during tests. It was mild so there wasn't much follow up from doctors, but it was part of everything going on. And just like you, mine was/is also a sliding hiatal hernia. Definitely contributing to my GERD.
I've done a lot of research of all the things you mention though I hadn't heard of Roemheld syndrome. I'll have to look that up.
While I'm not 100% sure, I do think that these issues inter-relate at least for me, and dealing with the various symptoms over the years I think has helped my breathing improve.
Do you experience severe air hunger, among other symptoms frequently?
