Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain And Shortness Of Breath

About 2 months ago I had severe chest pains with shortness of breath, sweating, slight pain in my left wrist, and shortness of breath. We went to the emergency room and the EKG and blood work were all fine. My BP was 120/80 with a heart rate of 70-80 bpm. I still have the same episodes, sometimes daily or multiple times a day. The feeling in my chest is similar to when you swallow something too big or if I had a gas bubble. Some times I do get burpy right after. I rarely have episodes during the day, they are more frequent in the evening about 2 hours after dinner. We have a blood pressure cuff at home. My normal daily average is 117/80 with a heart rate of 72. Yesterday we measured my BP when I was having a rather painful episode and my BP was 141/84 and my pulse was 64.

Pulmonologist 's  Response
It would be ideal for you to consult a pulmonologist. As symptoms could be related to your lungs as your cardiac workup as mentioned by you is normal.
