it's entirely possible that the liquid you're referring to is in fact stomach acid. it's not uncommon for reflux to get worse when lying down. did your doctor prescribe something for you to take for the acid reflux? if so and it's not working then i'd suggest you return to the doctor to describe what's going on. he or she may want to change your medication or have you try a mechanical approach to the problem such as elevating the head of your bed on a couple of bricks. you also would be well advised to stop eating within two hours of bedtime. i doubt the symptoms you're describing are related to any heart problem but only your doctor can say for sure. no matter what this issue is having a negative impact on your daily life so you should get it checked out again. best wishes to you!
i wake up in the middle of the night choking on a liquid what could this be? . i have been diagnosed with acid reflux and was thinking maybe i had fluid on me. when i burp or swallow liquid follows always making me gag or choke. i was wondering what this could be could it be related to my heart?
