HEY EVERYONE, I'M KAT!
and i'm here to help :)
i love to give advice, and i've been told that i give some good advice, aswell.
i'm very dedicated once i get involved in someone's problems, and i'll probably make sure you're okay, and that my answer has been sufficent.
i don't 'sugarcoat' my answers, as just about every columnist on this site complains about, but i do present everything in a way that people will be able to handle, and relate to in their situation.
i could honestly care less about ratings, i just wanna help some people out. in my problems, current and past, i seek help through my friends, who i adore.
i'm a huge my chemical romance fan, and i know pretty much everything about them; so if you have a question on them, i'm here. go for it. ;)
i'm unique in my own way, so ask me for something, and i'll give you a fairly different answer.

XOXO
KAT!

I was pondering this for awhile, and I have really bad upper-digestive problems, mainly acid-reflux (like REALLY bad), and heartburn. I get a lot of spasms in my throat, frequent shortness of breath (especially exercising), and i'm always coughing. I am not sure if these symptoms are just from other reasons, but people keep telling me I might have cancer, or somewhere to the chance of developing it. Maybe asthma as well from my breathing problems. I get confused on this. And I need what to look for in cancer (like in the throat) and the symptoms of asthma (maybe other breathing conditions) also, if it does sound like I have anything to seek a Doctor with, what could I possibily have (in your educated opinion/guess).

I would like to hear that there is not anything wrong with me, but I keep getting on-going symptoms with breathing, and acid-problems. I'd say I had these for a year now. So please list me symptoms/signs for conditions I may have, and again, I have these symptoms:

*Frequent shortness of breath (especially when exercising during short periods of time and waking up/going to sleep)

*Breathing spasms, especially when waking up.

* Bad acid-reflux, heartburn, any acid-conditions, that actually occur several times a day, even WITHOUT junkfood, eaying before bed, WITH OTC meds, and all the other rules of treating it.

* Coughing frequently from the time I wake up to when I go to bed (I don't know about while I am sleeping).

So just help me out here. Thanks in advance! And I apoligize for how long this is, I just want the most accurate answers as possible. =)

Well, I deffinately reccomend going to a doctor, and tell him/her about any concerns you have. Actually, to me it sounds like you could possibly have crohns/colitis or maybe just acid reflex disease. Any one of those would explain the neck problems (because of the acid), but I'm not exactly sure about your shortness of breath..


Good luck, though. Tell your parents about this, and ask them to let you see a doctor.
