Since posting this, I've seen a cardiac doctor to rule out heart problems and was told I didn't have gerd, but heart problems and he scheduled me for stress test and
some kind of calcium test. I've seen 3 doctors in the past week and got 3 different diagnosis. I have since eliminated my chest pain with baking soda and water. It
does stop the pain quickly. Don't sound like a heart problem to me. On blood pressure med now and it is doing very good. Going to get the gall bladder checked out
next and let the cardiac doctor sit for the time being. Did try one nitro pill under the tongue and it did not stop the pain in the center of my chest. The baking soda
worked quickly and effectively. Been told my system makes too much acid and I think that doctor was right.
