Suggest Treatment Fro Indigestion And Feeling Of Lump In Throat
Today I was outside in 90 degree temps and started feeling like I was having a bad case of indigestion. It was like a big lump in my throat and chest. I thought maybe that I was having a heart attack. ONce inside where it was cooler, I felt better. The symptoms lingered all afternoon but improved as time passed. Any ideas of what happened? I m a female. 63 years old.
Hello, This could be angina, meaning that it comes from your heart or just heartburn, meaning that it comes from your esophagus. You need to see your doctor and tell them what happened. They may want to do a stress test on your heart to make sure that it is okay. Regards
