Your symptoms are suggestive of probable Acute Pharyngitis with Acid reflux.

Avoid stress and anxiety.

Avoid smoking and alcohol if any.

Avoid spicy food.

Take 3-4 liters of water per day.

Brief Answer:
Short course of anxiolytic medications will help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam.

I understand your concern.

The symptoms of breathlessness and palpitations are directly related to the underlying ongoing stress and anxiety.

Anxiety and stress can worsen Gastrointestinal problems to a great extent particularly at night.

It's very important that you control them with intense mental preparation.

A short course of yoga and swimming will help you.

In case if you find these symptoms intolerable. A short course of anxiolytic medications will be helpful. I generally prescribe oral tablets of Clonazepam to my patients.Please check with your doctor if he shares my view and if can prescribe them to you.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.

Brief Answer:
It takes 2-3 weeks for full drug effect.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

Welcome again.

It takes 2-3 weeks for you to completely get adjusted to these medications to feel well.This is drug latency effect.Do not worry about it.

Gastric disturbances are common with these drugs.Hence, protective agents are co-prescribed.

I generally recommend Oral tablets of Pantop D to my patients to effectively curb gastric disturbances.I advise you to check with your doctor if he shares my view and if can prescribe them to you.

Brief Answer:
Get a stool test for occult blood.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I understand your concern.

You need to continue Pantop D40 for at least 21 days.This will control the burning sensation.

Likewise, a stool test for occult blood has to be done in your case.

In case if it turns out to be positive, an upper GI endoscopy is recommended to rule out peptic ulceration or gastric erosion.

Post your further queries if any,
Thank you.
