Does anyone seem to get more anxious when they have acid reflux and then the acid reflux seems to get worse? I know it's a silly question.

When I get heart burn I feel anxious which makes it worse. I have had stomach uclers and GERD since age 16. I think my severe anxiety causes more intense symptoms.

Read my June 3 post about acid reflux. Prevacid helped me a lot. The anxiety I've had lately seems to upset my stomach like Lucinda mentions.
The relaxing steps help. Best wishes.

No questions are silly.

I've had acid reflux since age 19- 38 now. Prilosec OTC works well for me. Definitely related to anxiety and how I can that anxiety.

I also have acid reflux. I did some research and found the answer to my prayers. Keep in mind this may not work for everyone however it did for me. I take L-Glutamine. You can find it at pretty much any Herbal store. Aloe juice also works for easing that burning feeling you may get from the wearing away of the asophagus. I also suggest a digestive enzyme. I would be interested to know if you try the L-Glutamine, FYI- it takes about 2 says to notice the difference. Good luck!
