Anyone experienced this. I started to get a sort of ache in my chest after eating when walking. I noted that if my stomach was empty no problem. For breakfast I eat porridge and have no aching after that. It doesn't appear heart related. I've been taking HCL with pepsin 3 tablets with a meal. I don't get any burning sensation so maybe not taking enough but afraid to take more. Yesterday I forgot to take the HCL with my evening meal and about 11pm had bad aching in chest. I drank a tablespoon of apples cider vinegar and it went away.

I sometimes find i can go for a walk and although no problems to start, sometime into the walk the aching will start up again could food still be hanging around in my stomach or maybe it is gas.
