Hello doctor,
I am 37 years old this year. I have symptoms of acid reflux. After eating 15 to 20 minutes, I often burp and my throat always feels like there is a lump in my throat. Nearly 1 month ago, I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with stomach pain (according to clinical diagnosis) because I could not have an endoscopy due to arrhythmia and taking prescription drugs from the hospital. I have been taking it for 7 days and I have a sore throat and frequent heartburn. So the doctor asked me if heartburn with a choking throat is acid reflux? Thank you.
