What tablets and foods help with GERD-related breathing issue?
GERD is a disorder that occurs when stomach acid comes back into the food pipe. The food pipe is what brings the food to the stomach. This can result in breathing problems as well. In this case, you can take antacids such as Tums or Rolaids to help with the acid. Avoid spicy, fatty, and acidic foods. Try to eat smaller meals and do not lie down right after eating. This can make you feel better.

Why are my cheekbones and jaw twitching?
This condition called muscle twitches is typically benign, as it were. Stress, fatigue, or even the consumption of too much caffeine can be the causes of the condition. Try getting enough sleep, using relaxation techniques, and eating less caffeinated food. But if it still happens or becomes more intense, it's better to get it checked by a neurologist just in case.

Could tablet have entered windpipe while sleeping?
When a tablet feels stuck in the throat, it is usually in the esophagus instead of the trachea. You would cough a lot if it got into the windpipe. Sometimes, it can be a feeling of something getting stuck in the throat because the tablet is dissolved for some time. Drinking water may assist it in its journey downward. However, if you experience difficulty breathing or acute pain, get medical treatment as soon as possible.
