Acidity and shortness of breath

Question

Asked for Female, 26 Years

Hi , I have been suffering from acidity for last 20 days since i started eating vitamin c tablets and many citrus fruits. Now sometimes i feel i am short of breath and it worsens while eating food. I always feel like there is something in my throat . The feeling of shortness of breath while eating scares me. I have been taking gelusil liquid 4 tb spoons a day for last one week. It has reliefed me a little but not so much. Please advise me for the above issue. Unable to sleep as i feel i won't be able to breathe when i sleep. I am not able to visit a doctor coz of lockdown. Is this a cause of concern?
