Is it possible to have breathing difficulty due to a gastric problem?

Yes: Yes, severe gastric reflux can affect your airways and lead to brochospasm (asthma-like issues). Talk to your doctor soon!

Yes...: Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or gerd, is one cause of bronchospasm. By treating the gerd, the bronchospasm is relieved.
