The Symptoms Of Hiatal Hernia Syndrome
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- Hiatal Hernia Syndrome can be composed of a variety of symptoms that are severe and can result in visits to the ER. Most often patients I meet have had one or more ER visits because they were convinced they were having a heart attack.
Once that's ruled out, patients are often then diagnosed with anxiety and put on dangerous medications.
Almost standardly the patient is minimally given an acid blocker like omeprazole, which unfortunately can be the exact wrong treatment since their problem isn't due to true excess acid.
Some of the symptoms found in Hiatal Hernia Syndrome are as follows:
Acid reflux or GERD
Bloating, Gas
Anxiety
Panic Attacks
Heart palpitations and chest pain
Pressure in chest
Fatigue
Insomnia
Constipation or Diarrhea
Shortness of breath
Trouble swallowing or a sore throat
Tingling in hands or feet
Burping
Symptoms worsen when bending over
and more...
What's important is to get to the true root cause of the problem and with that accomplished the problem can be fully remedied.

TY for posting this information. I'm absolutely in tears rn. Everything described here is/was something I've experienced. For DECADES! Diagnosed with GERD, obesity, depression, etc. Lab tests, diagnostic imaging, etc. I made sure to share this with my GI nurse practitioner bc this video puts in words all the things I could not. ❤
I feel l found a miracle in this lady! Reddit has a group where people vent and trade suggestions . YES, I have read that endoscopy has caused harm in various ways...going for ANY medical procedure has its chances . How could we even prove it? Sadly, l'm living on very low income...TG I have Medicaid. My greatest wish is to see a functional medicine doc, but that is not reality for me. I love my UA-cam Army. They've taught me so, so much. Another thing is: what is the function of your PCP? They do NOTHING, only the barest of a physical, only hand out referrals. "What is this world coming to!?", said everyone's Grandmother, Mother, and now..ME!😊 Be well, friend!
Having suffered from anxiety attacks and stomach issues for the past twenty years, this video has completely changed my perspective on the condition and now I can feel more confident and relaxed. Thanks.
We are glad this video helped! 😁🙌
I thought I was both crazy and dying but when I threw up this morning I started looking for answers on my own and found your channel. I was never ever told about any of these rogue symptoms of my hiatal hernia. While I'm frustrated that doctors withhold so much info I don't feel helpless, crazy or like I'm dying anymore. Thank you so much!!
I have never felt so heard. I got an endoscopy done due to some intestinal issues and learned I had a hiatal hernia. What’s been the hardest thing for me to understand is why did I start feeling all these symptoms after the procedure? I’m not sure how long I had this hernia for. At most I would get some acid reflux or heartburn. It was never anything serious. I told my Gastro doctor about my additional problems and she told me that I should talk to my general doctor because my symptoms weren’t associated with my hernia. I get the jumping heartbeat when bending over, the heavy pressure in my chest, the air hunger, and anxiety. All of it. It’s so scary. I’ve only been dealing with these new symptoms since September and it has completely changed my way of life. The biggest thing I want to know is can an endoscopy upset a hernia and cause all these symptoms that weren’t present before?
Mine too flare only after the endoscopy.
An endoscopy absolutely caused these symptoms for me. Doctors are great at lying to your face
@@WolfieWoofWoofMeowWhat l go through w down 10 men...l kid you NOT!!! Just got results back that found its NOT my hiatal hernia ( literally non stop burping, plus) but HEART DOC found a REAL BUNCH OF SCARY STUFF by accident. I'm so worn out, sick n DISGUSTED by these effin' "doctors", l am at a loss at how to start , as l w now need A LOT more than gastroenterologist!!!! Not looking forward. Guess what, sorry if l sound bitter but...if you only knew.
I wish ALL OF US health n brains enough to appreciate it!
Good morning and god bless. In my teens, i was diagnosed with gastritis. Couldnt eat, felt full after one bite, would wake me up with extreme pain. As years went by conditions greatly improved. I am now 41 years oldz and for the past 22-23 years ive had no major issues aside from occasional abdominal pain/gas primarily at night after eating. Passing gas or make a bowel movement would help. This past march, i experience a life changing event. Was taking a hot shower and experienced a dull yet burning sensation in the middle of my chest. Immediately became extremely exhausted and couldn't finish my shower. Then came the numbness and tingling and shortness of breath with lightheadedness. Could barely move. Got to the ER and everything checked out normal. Lost 10 pounds in 2 months. Never had vomit or anything. Been to Specialties to Specialties and no one can pin point the issue. I would love to talk with you.
This has been my thought
Thank you for this video finally someone who gets it and understands

Toxic mold exposure can cause stomach related symptoms. If you live or work in a place with mold or water damage be aware that it could be the cause of so many physical and mental health issues

I’m going through all these symptoms now… it’s scary and nerve wrecking 😢
I think you mean nerve wracking 🫶🏻
Looking forward to the next video. I was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia and prescribed omeprazol for the rest of my life. I was instructed to also change my diet, which makes sense but even then I still get acid reflux. I now have heart palpitations and was diagnosed with pvc. So now I am prescribed a med for that as well. Hoping I can find answers to a better treatment plan, perhaps. Anyway thank you
I would very much encourage you to reach out to us for a consultation. Omeprazole for life can have some dangerous consequences, not to mention it's not curing the root cause for your heart palpitations. We have excellent success treating patients that suffer with the symptoms you mentioned. We'd be delighted to help. We do telemedicine across the country.

We met today Fasal. Now you just need to start! I'm excited to help you.@@fasalraja4385
This is amazing. I've been speculating this for a while based on my symptoms. I've found that ibuprofen can help temporarily relieve my symptoms. Which makes sense, if the problem is inflammation. I've been diagnosed with sporadic pvcs, pacs, and ventricular tachycardia. I've been to the ER for this 4 times over the last ten years.

Hello Mrs. Petersen,
Thank you for your great videos. I live in Germany. Unfortunately I have had problems with my stomach for years. A small hiatal hernia was found. The gastroenterologist said that the hernia does not cause any discomfort. Elevated levels of the lower esophageal sphincter were found on manometry. I should take PPis. I'm really bad and my quality of life is very limited.
Can you recommend me something?
Greetings Jessica

Thank you 🙏, what are your thoughts on a nissen fundleplacation surgery? Do you feel that can help with the symptoms?
Have you heard of Roemheld syndrome similar symptoms to these hiatal symptoms
How do you know if you have a hiatal hernia or Rosemead syndrome?
Thanks Doc!
Also, can HH be missed on EGD and imaging?
Where do I go if I think I have this? I’ve had my heart checked over and over, it’s fine, and I have unexplained panic attacks that always seem to start with the heart. My heart palpitates when I lie down. Happens all the time. Cardiologist and go say I’m a hypochondriac and won’t take me seriously
Same here too. Now I take gaba and melatonin for sleep. I also started breathing exercise and digestion yoga.
Maybe take a good magnesium supplement
Are there NON-SURGICAL techniques for HEALING hiatus hernia? IOW, is there an exercise or stretch that can CURE this condition?
Ive been suffering it since my heart op 7yrs ago
How can non US residents get assistance. Virtual or zoom meeting
Dear Doctor ; electrolytes imbalance, specially potassium and magnesium are related to Hiatal hernia ? I have been in ER several times with same symptoms plus low potassium and sodium.
All the symptoms you mentioned in this video are REAL for me .
Would you please help me?

How can one manually correct a fixed hernia, with the stomach going through the diaphragm into the esophagus, not protruding sideway. I was told mine is about 2cm and I do get a few symptoms, mainly tension where i feel tense in the mid section, full for a lot longer and not hungry, I did have palpitations regularly but its a lot less now. When i do have symptoms it comes with a cough.
Manual reduction of the spasm is only successful when the root cause of the gut inflammation is dealt with. The tension you're feeling, plus lack of appetite and feeling full is not normal and is indicative of a malfunctioning GI tract. We do telemedicine across the country so would be delighted to help.

I can't run anymore. I can't do anything physical without feeling a spasm in my stomach and then the heart palpitations start, sometimes I slap my belly, repeatedly, to pass gas, and they will stop. I've been an ass life. I had a full cardiac work up last year, and they said everything was fine, including an echo stress test
I understand how miserable that can be. If you'd like assistance consider reaching out for a consultation. We'd be delighted to help. You can call us at 727-335-0400. We have a very high success rate.
This is me, been dealing with it for 8 years!

Can a hiatal hernia cause side rib pain and burning back pain (or what feels like chills? )I’ve been experiencing this.
Im dealing with the same exact thing/symptoms also! Any luck in your journey?
Hi - so it turned out that I didn’t have a hiatal hernia. After having an endoscopy they discovered I had very bad stomach inflammation from stress and diet. It took a few months, but after carefully watching my diet and using PPI’s (which I was against, but I was desperate) I finally healed. I think getting a clear diagnosis from a dr is very important. I hope that you heal
Hlad you got relief. What diet did you follow if you dont mind sharing?
of course! So I got a recommendation for this book “The Gastric Healing Book” by LG cappellan - I admit to not following it exactly all the time, but making consistent choices and changes in diet helped me heal. This won’t sound appetizing, but I started juicing cabbage every morning and drinking it on an empty stomach. Also celery juice. Google cabbage juice and stomach issues. There’s a lot of science behind it. Once I felt better, I pretty much went back to eating things that I temporarily gave up. Coffee is a no-no until you’re better. Eat mild foods, stay away from acidic and greasy or fried stuff.
Is it possible to have HH without reflux symptoms?
It is possible, I eat anything and everything but I get heart palpitations,so going for a surgery next week

I have experienced heart palpitations bloating fast heart rate slow heart rate afib anxiety acid reflux and many other symptoms , I have been seeing a cardiologist with no diagnosis , I have high blood pressure so I'm on 50 mg of metoprolol 2 times daily , I have been to the gastronologist for colonoscopy that was normal endoscopy that was normal and was prescribed famotidine/ Pepsid which made everything worse , When I took the Pepsid it seemed to trigger more heart palpitations so I stopped taking it I've been drinking apple cider vinegar twice daily to keep the acid down and that seems to help me out a little when you said people feel like they lost their lives that's exactly how I feel eating is torment because I never know whats going to trigger a palpitation or bloating this came on so suddenly 5 years ago and I think my vegas nerve plays a big part in all this . I don't know where to go from here any advice from you would be greatly appreciated videos like this to give me some insight and are a blessing ❤ . THANK YOU.
I have the same problem, I am going for a surgery next week. Come to India and get the surgery done it's really cheap like $1500
I’ve been having left abdominal tension under my ribs and anxiety for 4 years . Chiropractor felt a lot of tension around a hiatus hernia area and a strong aortic pulse .4 years ago was cleared medically but the pseudo tightness, no pain and. No heart burn as been so strange . I also feel like my stress hormones go sky high when I start chewing.. the tension goes down to my pelvic area and mid back .
It’s all Around the lower diaphragm area .. left side and my right side is soo free and relaxed . I can even feel it in upper glute . My ekg was ruled out as fine and ultrasound for epi gastric showed nothing .. so no my chiropractor said to do a few more visits before a barium x ray .
All these symptoms started when I started working at a desk job …
Chronic upper ab tension for 4 years … 🫣🫣🫣
Especially if I don’t eat enough I feel like my stomach and abs are like a rubber band tension
