Can acid reflux cause you to also almost feel hungry mixed with nausea?

Hi

I to suffered from acid reflux.

But I try and control it with not eating and drinking the food that trigger it.

My symptoms at the worse are

Palputations

Tightness in my chest ( felt like a heart attack) went to A&E because it

was that bad.

Dizziness

Burping

Tummy gurgling

Anxiety.

Always hungry.

I was on acid reflux tablets for years but in the end they stopped working so I took myself off them. Only have gaviscon now when needed.

Be aware that anxiety can make symptoms worse.

Hope this helps

Yes I've had that feeling before have you tried any over the counter meds for it I would if not helpful see your doctor

Hi Sarah,

Yes I totally used to get this feeling, it was so weird, one minute I was feeling like I was going to throw up, next minute I'm starving, I never really took any notice of it coz I've had so many symptoms over many years.

I did have surgery last June to fix my reflux and and hiatus hernia, surprisingly on the odd occasion I still get this but it's not as intense as before my op.

Regards

Margaret

Yep, i feel that way too along with all the other "classic" symptoms of LPR.

  I suffer with anxiety however lately I have been having severe stomach discomfort and the doctor thinks I might have a hiatal hernia so I have to go have a CAT scan done. Meanwhile I feel a hungry/nauseous feeling. Also I've been getting some burning sensation in my throat roof of my mouth and etc. I just don't feel good and this is making my anxiety much worst. Im scared I'm like dying or something. I get tightness in my base of my throats and heaviness in my chest and pressure/hungry/nauseous feeling in between my breasts.... followed by some burping and yucky feeling. Also gives me palpitations sometimes 😣 

I hate this and hope I'm not alone with these scary symptoms 

Yes, i get this a lot even though i'm on a lot of lansoprazole to control it. When i have a bit of a flare up i get a starving hungry feeling , almost paimful which then makes me feel sick. Recently i've had a bad flare up of reflux and i've even been woken up im the early hours where its so bad.

im reading the replies and i see a lot of us have problems with anxiety. i wonder if its my zoloft causing these issues. since the pain feels like hunger i have been eating a lot more and gained sooo much weight since taking zoloft. i wonder of zoloft causes acid reflux. i never had these pains before zoloft although other family of mine do have acid reflux but not the hunger feeling. this is crazy we shouldnt have to live like this without answers

when I developed GERD and gastritis my first symptom was that I had extreme painful hunger. I still have it every once in awhile. I can't really explain it but it's awful. I'm experiencing it right now and I just can't satisfy the hungry feeling in my stomach. very frustrating. antacids don't work for me unfortunately

anyone found a solution to this? im facing the same since i was 10 everyday. Nothing was ever diagnosed after visiting countless doctors. endoscopy , scanning and they say there are no problems. PPIs, antacids didnt work so not taking them now. Oddly taking domperidone for an unrelated vomiting issue seems to better my symptoms. I was wondering if its gastroparesis as all symptoms match but sadly no good facilities to diagnose that where i live

i am twenty and i have had really bad anxiety about it. i have GERD so i do think that's what it is. When i eat i get so full i want to barf and it hurts real bad. but after that passes i am met with extreme hunger like i will not be hungry but my body tells me i am. my stomach feels empty like if its starving. eating does not stop this but for some reason burping seems to be the only thing that helps. i also have nausea and have had to hold back throwing up after a meal, if any of you feel this way please let me know i have real bad health anxiety and i am scared.
