I was just in the ED this past week and admitted for more tests. I get the same thing but I also have found my blood pressure shoots through the roof. I have a hiatal hernia and acid reflux also. So far the other tests are negative. I'm following up with another specialist soon...

Mandy I also have gerd , Hital Hernia and Gastritis and have had for a few years now . Just from my experience yes I definitely get  chest pressure and alot of pain radiating to my back from these and have asked the dr and was told it is common , In fact over the last few years I have made many trips to Er thinking of heart attack because of pressure in chest and pain radiating to my back , This is just my experience and good luck tomorrow, Hang in there and I hope you feel better soon.
