GERD, tenderness in chest, can't sleep

2017-09-23 20:43:25
I was diagnosed in June 2017 with GERD with acid reflux, and heartburn. Ever since I have been having GERD every single day and night frequently. This past month I have a tenderness and a slight bulge at the top of my abdomen right below my breasts in the middle. It gets worse at night when I lay down and I cannot lay on my stomach or my back because I feel like I can't take full deep breaths. I have to sleep on my side. I am a 19 year old female that never had any medical issues. not overweight
