Esphagus symptoms and conditions

I have been taking doxycycline for about 4 days now. Last night I took it right before bed, with water, and upon waking at about 1 am I felt that the pill was stuck in my esophagus. And then my stomach starting burning and acid started coming up. I still feel like the pill is lodged in there, and it is very uncomfortable. Along with this issue, I have felt rather depressed, dizzy, yeast infection, and am extremely tired. I don't really know what to do at this point. I was prescribed it for pneumonia and a double ear infection. My chest is still killing me from the pneumonia and still have trouble breathing. My doctors have not been helpful what so ever through this process. I had to actually go to the hospital for the proper diagnosis. I don't even know if it is even working for me, but I don't have health insurance and have been out of work for over a week. Can any one give me ANY advice PLEASE???!!!!!

I had take all but two of the of the first day's 4 mg pills when my heart began racing and my blood pressure shot up. I have cardiac arrythmia problems. Also, I had a couple of instances of GERD. This is rare for me now, since I take prilosec everyday to avoid irritating my esopagus. I have Barrett's esphagus.

Methlpred was prescribed following an MRI that showed moderate to severe cervical spinal stenosis. I wish I could coniue it, because it did help. Please reply ASAP.
