What Does Consistent Chest Pain While Having GERD Suggest?
Cardiologist confirmed PVC s but says other than that all looks well with heart. He suggests it s Gerd which has been confirmed by GI. My question is could there be flaw in my diagnosis considering my chest pains are fairly consistent even when taking PPI twice a day with occasional Tums as well?

If with PPI also u r getting pain, then u should further be investigated for reasons for PVCs, because mostly it wont come with normal persons. So, get your serum electrolytes & 2Decho done..mostly it would already be done cardiologist..but still according to me, ruleout causes of PVCs , before labelling it as a consequence of GERD
