Chest & Left Shoulder Blade Pain

I had an endoscopy with bravo and manometry on Tues.  I have had chest pains and left shoulder blade pains during and after eating, but they have been much worse since Tues.s procedures.  I feel like I can pinpoint the location of the chest pain.  Does anyone know if they could be related to the procedures?  It is painful to eat and I usually give up.

The pinned capsule can cause a range of sympotms from a slight tugging feels to outright discomfort. A number of people have mentioned quite a bit of discomfort until the capsule drops off and the discomfort can continue for some time afterwards. I'd chalk it up to the procedures.
