What effect does GERD have on pH levels?

hb_angel_2003 asked:


1. What is the pH of the stomach of a person with GERD?
2. What is the pH of the esophagus of a person with GERD?
i need help finding the answer to this question for anatomy assignment.
The pH must change because the question is to predict the stomach and esophageal pH of a patient with GERD.

Is it possible to get a server cough from gerd?

robloe30 asked:


I had a stomch wrap about four years agp due to having four times the normal amount of acid present in my stomach. Now I have a cronic cough and I am starting to get heart burn again after four years of being free from it. I can actually feel the acid seeping into my lungs. Does this make any sence?

i have just went to the doctor about two weeks ago… i had all my labs done… would having a complete exam and labs tell me rather or not i have heart problems? i was diagnosed with acid reflux because i would always have really bad gas pains in my lower stomach… i was given some pills and now i don’t have the pains nearly as much… the only thing is now i get like gassy pains in my chest area… i want to be sure this is just acid reflux or gas and not symptoms of a heart attack about to happen… usually when i get this feeling in my chest i also do have gas where i feel like have to burp or pass gas… it varies in the location of my chest as well… sometimes it will even radiate into the same area of my back… i do have a job where i sit all the time as well at home i sit a lot… i do try to ride my bike for 30 minutes every night too… also i know i don’t eat the best foods although some how my labs were great… i don’t even eat vegetables like i should… somehow my labs were really good… i am more of a meat and potato type person and snack on fiber one bars at work… they have 9 grams of fiber… i noticed when i do eat these i do get gassy too because of all this fiber… what do you know about heart burn and heart attack symptoms?
