I never really had heartburn or "gerd" (which from my understanding is just chronic heartburn, i may be wrong)
Thats why this is puzzling to me now.
1.starting a bout a month and half ago, I had my first acid reflux in which my esophagus felt like it was burning with swallowing foods, very irritated and swollen.
Also during this time i had a mild pain in my chest that could be felt when breathing deeply this was for about 4-5 days
2.about a week ago a got another episode, same situation lasted about 5-6 days
3.just last night, I got the feeling that something was stuck in my throat, a little different this time, not quite as big as a golfball but the feeling something was lodged, and no matter what i could not get it to go away. Now today i also have a headache
I dont know if this is from alcohol, bulletproof coffee (coffee, 1tbsp grassfed butter, 1 tbsp raw coconut oil), or almost two months ago. I had alcohol poisoning, I do not remember what happened, but someone else mentioned they most likely put a tube down my throat.
Also, since the 2nd episode, I picked up acidophilus, disgestive enzymes, and starting drinking braggs apple cider vinger in water, I dont know what made it go away but it wasnt immediately, it did go away after a couple days.
This third episode, I dont know what caused it, maybe some red wine, but the only thing i can narrow down was the BP coffee, I drank beefore my 2nd episode and thought maybe that was it, so i stopped for several days and yesterday I drank some again just to try and got the slightly different feeling but overall the same pain and more difficulty swallowing.
Ive also been taking daily raw one multi, on and off krill oil, vitamin d supp, and just recently (within last 4 days, artichoke extract and forskolin extract - but that wouldnt explain why i got the first two, i dont think this made it happen)
- but I will drop any/all supps that arent helping me
I dont know if its infection of stomach or gi or acid reflux
I've heard that d-limonene might help, any suggestions and or input would be greatly appreciated.
