A member asked:
I have had a cough and wheezing for 5 months. i have a history of gerd and i'm now wearing a bravo. my egd showed a tortuous distal esophagus. ph 1.4?

Gerd: The cough and wheezing may or may not be related to your gerd. Nevertheless I recommend that you consult a pulmonologist as you may have adult onset asthma. Either way you will be treated for your prolonged cough and wheezing by an appropriate specialist. Let the gastroenterologist treat your gerd.
