symptoms

Here is a quick list of the many symptoms of GERD I have experienced over the years, beginning with the most obvious:

• cough
• acid indigestion
• dripping / burning sensation in mid esophagus 
• choking sensation in throat
• general malaise
• large air bubbles in esophagus
• pain in esophagus eased by burping
• aspiration
• aching sensation in esophagus
• chest pain
• inability to sing more than several bars due to irritation in esophagus
• indigestion increase during exercise
• shallow voice caused by indigestion, particularly present when doing physical labor that involves frequency of bending over (installing flooring, working on lawn mower, gardening, etc)
• shortness of breath
