What Causes Extreme Sharp Chest Pain, Excessive Belching And Bloating, Persistent Right Sided Pain And Nauseousness?

I have been having a pulling sensation in my chest, it feels like tugging on my esophagus. I have been checked for heart issues as it sometimes causes extreme sharp chest pain. Most of the time it hurts and burns, causes excessive belching (constantly). It hurts when I eat or drink, or if my stomach is empty as well. I also have had persistent right sided pain right around where my gallbladder is located. I have had sludge in my gallbladder in the past but not stones. I have been sick more often than not for the past year. Constantly belching and bloated, nauseous, with stomach pain sometimes also felt in the same area but on my back. I had an upper GI which showed some reflux and a HIDA scan which showed my gallbladder functions correctly but sometimes refluxes bile into my stomach. I have been on PPI s for over a year now. Nothing is helping the symptoms. Even water upsets my stomach at this point.

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

The ideal approach will be to repeat ultrasound, endoscopy and stress ECG
A CT scan of the chest and upper abdomen may at times shed light - showing diaphragm, pancreas etc.
Pro-kinetic agent like Domperidone could be added to the PPI... / Anxiolytic drugs may also help
Discuss with your doctor.../

Take care     
God bless
