My upper stomach feels tight and full even when i havent eaten anything and i have difficulty breathing because of it, what could be the cause?

Hiatal hernia: A hiatal hernia can cause this, but that doe not guarantee that is what you have. Acid indigestion, reflux, hypersecretory conditions can possible be causative too. Get an eval to have it checked out, good luck.

Maybe hiatal hernia: Ask your primary care if you need an upper GI contrast study or referral to a gastroenterologist to find out.
