Hospitalized For Chest Pain, Reports Normal. Reading High For Nutcracker Esophagus. Why Getting Chests Pains From Smells?
Was in the hospital 2 weeks ago with chest pain, all test were done and no heart attack. I have nutcracker esophagus with very high reading 300 across the board. Wanted to know why I get chest pain from smells and can't be around heat or cold without getting pain. I had to take a pain pill a few minutes ago because the pain gets so bad. It is not a nutcracker attack, that I know how to handle

Hi and thanks for the query,
I do think you might need a more careful evaluation again. It therefore implies you got a trigger of these symptoms that might really have to avoid. Any history of asthma or bronchitis is important to be noted. you are advised to keep warm , avoid triggers for now and the opinion of a pulmonologist in this case might count, that s my suggestion and kind regards.
