Suggest Treatment For Chronic Chest Pain
Question: I am having chest pain (burning to mild pain)for more then 1 and half year.doctors ruled out cardiac cause after having multiple ECG,echo and negative tmt test. I get pain randomly while walking or having food but not always. I am having other problem like chest burns when lying down on bed pain and laughing .pain doesn't come during laughing period but after few seconds to a minute. doctor told me my lungs were clear and chest xray is normal
Brief Answer:
gastric reflux probably
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome in HCM
I can understand your concern
According to the history you have already excluded heart and lungs problems as the cause of the pain.
It seems to me that it might be a gastric reflux which means the secretions of the stomach goes back in the esophag .It is often especially in younger patients.
It can be evaluated by fibrogastroscopy examination. Probably your doctor will give you treatment with antiacids medications (like Esomeprazol orally twice for one month).
Please discuss with your doctor for the above

Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Yes it i nearly normal that in obese during or after an effort to have nasal congestion.
Obesity is another cause for reflux which aggravates the situation even under the treatment .
So try to lose some weight and do the correct treatment and you will feel better for sure.
