I have copd for over 5 years and have been using inhalers along with exercises, walking to keep it under control. For some time now I have been experiencing a heaviness and tight feeling around the upper abdomen which reduces with time but flares up again, causing some breathing problem. My oxygen reading has been between 95-97, and pulse rate between 65-75. Is this due to respiratory issue or gerd reflux. It reduces when I take medicine for constipation and bowel cleans up, but returns in the day.
