Question: Is it possible to have pain between the shoulder blades as a result of severe acid reflux? I am referring to pain that radiates to the shoulders and chest and may even cause acid to rise into the throat?
Answer: Yes, it can definitely cause those symptoms. You should see a physician, because if left untreated, ulcers can develop in the esophagus. The pain may be caused by other issues, so be sure to have it checked out! It sounds like you may just have a severe case of gas!
Answer: It definitely can radiate to your shoulder and back.
Answer: It sounds like you have a severe case. You should see a GI specialist.
Answer: I’ve never experienced that. Mine always feels like a heart attack with intense chest pain. I go to the hospital where they give me a GI cocktail that resolves the problem. Sure, I don’t see a problem with taking Tagamet OTC in the morning and at night.
Answer: All those symptoms can be caused by gallbladder, kidney or heart disease too! Stress and muscle strain can cause those symptoms as well!
