Hi Shirley,   Probably the best thing you can do at this point is see your doctor about these symptoms. I am not sure they are related to GERD, but I will give you links to information that will help you decide what you need to ask your doctor when you see him/her.   If you think you have GERD, you can read about it here. You can check all of your symptoms here in the symptoms database. Once you have been diagnosed, if you are prescribed any medication, you can read about the medications here in the drugs database. You can read about treatments available here in the treatments database. This article gives you information about foods to avoid and lifestyle changes you can make in the event you are dealing with acid reflux.   I hope this helps somewhat. Make sure you stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!Vicki M
