So for the last 6 years I have had this horrible thing where I have these episodes of repeated belching and the sensation I cannot catch a satisfying breath. Honestly the attacks seem random but typically happen more when I am stressed out or anxious. I feel like I have seen every type of doctor in the last 6 years; cardiologist, pulmonologist, ENT, gastroenterologist, and more. I have had multiple barium swallows and an endoscopy with a 24 hour PH test. All results indicated I am physically normal and my belching is not the result of GERD or anything. Presumably I am swallowing too much air and just hyperventilating. This really lowers my quality of life and I am trying to conquer it but I am running out of places to turn and I have never met anyone who experiences this. I have done breathing exercises but man when my attacks get bad it seems like it’s futile and I just have to wait for it to pass. The worst is when these attacks are bad and I get lightheaded, I have never actually passed out but it feels like I am about to. Very scary and upsetting when they happen.
