has anyone else experienced these eye, mouth, ears, or face symptoms of GERD.

kind of long post; symptoms in question are at the bottom.

i have been debating making a post on this subreddit for a bit, but after becoming an active lurker and seeing how much people feel relieved to have the support of others, i've decided to give it a chance.

i have been experiencing symptoms of acid reflux since june of 2023. i was eating a burger for dinner, slathered in ketchup and mustard, and a few bites info eating it, it felt like my throat was closing. i remember panicking about how i couldn't breathe, and how despite never experiencing an allergic reaction, this was the closest to what i thought one would feel like. my father ended up telling to lick baking soda, and about 30 minutes after, i felt better.

since then, it has progressively gotten worse. it has gone from constant heartburn after eating, to constant heart palpations (that have gotten so bad that i had to elevate my feet to stop from passing out), issues getting a deep breath in or breathing in general (as if someone was sitting on my sternum), and constant brain fog/head aches that happen every time i eat. most of my symptoms have been relatively common for the first six months of 2024, yet have recently became more extreme, and i feel so alone in experiencing them.

so i wanted to know if anyone has ever experienced these symptoms. they are:

• burning eyes (mostly after eating)

• tired eyes / dry eyes / foggy eyes

• burning / itching sensation in the back of my throat (typically 30 minutes after eating, but sometimes hours)

• burning lips that sometimes feels to radiate to my nose

• clogged / wet feeling in my ears.

anyone's input would be appreciated.
