We were out of town this past week and my husband who has acid reflux, woke up in the middle of night coughing, could not breathe well, and was having chest pains and a severe burning sensation when he coughed. We went to ER. They first ruled out heart problems...all those tests were negative. We feel like he aspirated some of the acid into the lungs and has been coughing it up since the episode. We are back home now, and he will go to his gastro doctor Monday morning. Very scary!
