Do you leave in a low humidity state? That could cause the dryness. There are many saline nasal sprays you can use throughout the day to help with this.

I use nasal saline sprays to clean out my nose and sinuses as I live in Florida and have a lot of pollen and wind blown irritants.

The pain in your stomach and bottom part of chest is best to get medical attention and their diagnoses of what is causing it. It does though sound like a hianal (spell?) hernia, ulcers, etc. so asked your medical doctors about that.

@lacy2 I have also found a small humidifier to be helpful during the winter months, in upstate Wisconsin, and I also use distilled water. I had to place it in the bathroom of the master bedroom because if it was right next to my bed, it made me feel water-logged by morning. It is also very good for the plants. 🙂
