Hello sir. My. Age 32. During my childhood I used have some climatic allergies like sneezing, cold ,cough .i was treated by doctors as it was asthma. I was given. Asthalin, aerocort inhalers .to be used. When they are needed at my 20-23 years of age. Later I used to carry aerocort with me but rarely I used them for past 9 years. But from past 1 year i'm experiencing shortness of breath, little cough when I felt smoke, dust. Sprays etc, and second thing is due to my work busy I started to develop gastritis from. Past 1 year. Sometimes I feel shortness of breath and regurgitate water. Semisolid food. Then I will relax .from shortnessbreath. Now I recently known. There is relation between this asthma and gerd. So in order to treat this problem. I should start with asthma or gerd. Whom should I first consult. Pulmonologist or gastroenterologist? Due this corona effect doctors are not listening clearly about our problems. They are not giving enough time to say. About both asthma and gerd. They only treating temporarily. What kind of lab tests might help me to clear my problem?

Dear Mr. lybrate-user, your health issue needs to be addressed by pulmonologist first. Any respiratory distress, causes dysfunction at many levels, and can precipitate gerd also. You should undergo pulmonary function test and a chest x ray to find your present pulmonary function status - these tests will also help in treatment plan. For gastritis, eat small portions of easy digestable non oily spicy food and take regular walks - after meals. Wishing you good health.
