can airway get blocked with acid reflux disease enough to make a person passout?
I saw a throat, ears, nose dr. he put me on priloces OTC twice a day. I don't have heartburn, however, he says acid does come back up into the esophogus. Early in the mornings, I have trouble breathing for a little while. Usually, it calms and i continue my day as normal...no pain, etc. However, this morning it got sooo bad I actually passed out for a few mins. Is it possible for GERD to affect my breathing in this way?
thank you.
