Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, you are mostly having HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). It is common in lying down position (early morning) and improving with food. HERD is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause symptoms nausea, chest pain, breathing difficulty etc. So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in HERD. 1. Avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. 2. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food. 3. Take pantoprazole tablet on empty stomach. 4. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in the bed to prevent reflux. 5. Quit smoking and Alcohol if you have these habits. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
