[|Human|] I have a haital herina and have spent a couple of nights in emergency in Medicine Hat.  One emergecy vistit was for pain and pressure in the chest and dificulty getting enough air.  Was checked out for heart health and checked out fine.    The second trip was for extreme numbness and prickly sensation in the entire left side of my body.  I was concerned that I may be having a stroke.  A barium swallow test revealed that I have a hital hernia.  Interested in what my options for this malady might be.  Have trouble sleeping, low energy, depression and was gaining weight.   After last emergency trip the attending doctor found that my thyroid was low and I am now on 25 mcg of levothyroxine.  Personaly after doing some research I suspect that the hital herina is putting pressure on my vagus nerve.  This in turn is causing problems in my gut and I suspect Im not getting enough HCL in my stomach.  I find it hard to digest beef and pork.  I have kidney stones as well.  I think the vagus nerve is causing my heart palpitations and the breathing problems or mimicking the troubled heart systems.  I also discovered that when the vagus nerve is compromised it can cause a hyperexcitable condition in the patient and this can lead to hemisensory symtoms ( numbness in entire left side of the body) hyperventilation and panic attacks.  Curious to here your opinion.
[|AI|]  HelloThanks for your query. Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have varied symptoms due to Hiatus Hernia, Yypothyroidism and Kidney stones. Since your symptoms are predominantly due to hiatus hernia I would suggest you get it operated first and later on get treated for kidney stones. Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical assessment and further treatment. Thanks and Regards. Chat Doctor.
