Strange Sensation In Lungs And Wing Pipe, Painful And Fluttering, Hernia In Diaphragm, Breathlessness, Over Weight. Help?

Hi, I have a strange sensation in the upper part of my lung, wind pipe!

The other night I had a strange sensation, not only painful, fluttering in the upper part of my lung and then a terrible heartburn followed.

I was painting with acrylic paint now, and I feel it's difficult to breath, feels really unnatural and scary.

I also have a terrible hernia in my diaphragm, can't eat at night, AND I stopped breathing twice one night, two episodes right after another. I am overweight, but not obese.

Does all of this happen because of the hernia?

Doesn't all happen because of a hernia. The heartburn and chest pressure/pain...etc can be secondary to a hernia...but the other symptoms are not secondary to a hernia. You should wear a mask when you use paint or chemicals.
