I have been suffering from the same thing for about a year. I've had test after test done. I have asthma so at first I assumed it was from that, but the pulmonologist ruled it out. She ordered a Spirometry test and that showed vocal chord dysfunction but showed my asthma was well controlled. I had an upper gi which showed inflammation in my esophagus and stomach lining, and a hiatal hernia. I then had a test where they put a catheter up my nose and into my stomach to measure stomach acid. That showed my stomach acid "levels" were normal or on the low side so my gastroenterologist doesn't think it has anything to do with my GERD. I did have 74 total reflux episodes but I guess they weren't stomach acid?? Weird, but whatever. I'm at the end of my rope. I've elevated my bed, and taking everything they are prescribing but nothing is helping. I'm scheduled for another test on 10/8/18 to look at my vocal chords. Please, please share any information or insight you might have. I'm desperate.
