[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. By your history and description, in my opinion you are having HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) mostly, because your symptoms like vomiting, burning pain and mild breathlessness after eating is seen in HERD. It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause the symptoms. So try to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief. 1. Avoid hot and spicy food. 2. Avoid stress and tension. 3. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.4. Start Proton pump inhibitors. 5. Go for walk after meals.6. Keep 2-3pillows under had in bad to prevent reflux.7. Lose weight if obese.8. Avoid smoking and alcohol if you are having these habits.
