    Sure, feel that often. I feel it across my back. Burning, sharp hearburn pains. Sometimes they even go down my arms. I get short of breath and nauseaus too. Have you been evaluated by a gastro Dr? Do you take any antacids? Sounds like you need some management of your symptoms so you don't have to suffer so much.

      Hi Jojoann, I did went to a gastro specialist. Now I'm taking Nexium 40mg twice a day and Gaviscon Advance. I also ever experienced the pain go till the arm and short breath too. After I take Nexium twice a day it really have improve a lot.  Just that the uncomfortableness really make me very down. I think the only time I can feel relax is when i sleep.

      Hi Leslie nice to know you and thank you very much for your concern. I'm  so sad for what you had gone through but luckily you found a good Dr and to fix your problem. I also went to a few Dr to get their opinion but what I can say is some of the Dr don't have the patient to listen to what we have been through. Some of them will just ask us to do this and that test first than only they can help us. But I had already done all of the test. So sad
