Suggest Treatment For GERD And Wheezing

I have GERD and am scheduled for a GI doc next month. I had a Fluoroscopic upper done and have a small hiatal hernia with a Schatzki s ring. My issue is at times I feel breathing issues and some wheezing. Also I experience a smothering feeling at times. Is this due to GERD or is there something else going on?
