I Find It Hard to Take a Deep Breath My Stomach Hurts Posted: 08-23-05 16:00pm
I have pain in top of stomach,i find it
hard to take a deep breath sometimes.The
docter thinks it could be acid or
ulcers.It started with shortness of breath
and my heart was doing 160 on the ecg.I no
it is not panic attacts.Because I have
pain in my stomach what could it be.I have
been like this for 9 weeks

I had a similar problem, when this
stabbing pain would flare up under my left
rib cage... It was also hard for me to
inhale. I had an endoscopy and my doc
says it's reflux. He put me on nexium.

cheers I have been put
on lansopazole,the tablets are not
helping.I have salbutomol inhaler that was
doing nothing .I have never had breathing
problems in my life.I dont no why this is
affecting my breathing.I was told my exray
of my lungs was normal the question is why
is my heart racing.It might be developing
in to panic attacks because it gets to me
when I can not get full breath.When I eat
it makes the problem worse ie my
breathing.I am going to docs next week I
dont think I can put up with this much
longer thank you for responding
i hope it is reflux hopefully they can get
this sorted.I had to go for peak flow but
I could not get enough air in to get a
reading.

Wow this so relevant to me, is such a
relief to know other people are going
through this! Is really a horrible
feeling! Am awiating an appointment for
an endoscopy so if anything turns up will
post it on here!

Stomach Ulcer Posted: 06-21-06 17:06pm
Hi thanks for the reponse I am still
finding it hard to take a deep breath,
i have stopped smoking for 10 month and
still have stomach pain.I did have a ulcer
been on the meds so far camera down tried
differant tablets nothing has helped.I
have been put on rabeprazole this seems to
be making me worse.It has all started
since I stopped smoking,so much for making
me better.I was losing weight now I am
putting weight on and not eating have a
much falling to bits.Still can not take
full breath stomach feels hard all the
time like a football.Told I had panic
attacks on top I think it due to the pain
heart still going fast can not get my
breath I could breath no problem before
this stomach problem.Hope some one out
there got an answer my doc thinks I am mad
:(

Hey Posted: 06-09-07 12:12pm
I have the same thing its very hard to
take a breath iv been this way for almost
a year now and the docs say its reflux and
gastritis and iv taken allmost all the
meds for stomach probs and still nothing
has worked for this it is giving me severe
anxiety as well and also makeing me lose
weight which i cant afford to lose! cause
i only weigh 110 punds now i used to weigh
127 so thats scareing me even more so i
dont know what to do about it? iv tried
nexium,prilosec,carafate,and prevacide and
still nothing has changed and i just got
back from the doc cause i had severe
stomach pain and he ran some tests and
said that i had acute pancreatitis
and that scared the caca out of me so not
only do i have severe pain but also i have
severe chronic anxiety panic attacks and
reflux all at the same time so what?
somthing has got to give!!?..
