Having Chest Pain. Feeling Lump In Throat And Dysphagia. EKG And Blood Test Done. What Is The Problem?
i went to my doctor with complaints of chest pains, a feeling of a lump in my throat and occasional dysphagia for 2 weeks. after an ekg and blood test to rule out other things, he prescribed Aciphex figuring it was acid reflux . it s helped out a lot, but i wonder if this means i necessarily have GERD, or can it be circumstantial or occasional acid reflux.

it may be GERD or beginning of it.Leave it to your doctor to worry about you only take prescribed medicines as they are relieving symptoms
