Hi.
I had the same problem today after taking a lot of acidic fluids like tea,lime,shots of viceroy and pineapple blended cocktail.ad also taken spicy beef stew mixed with beans for lunch.the acidity burnt my oesophagus.take a combined dose of omeprazole and meloxicam.hope it helps.
how did you make out? Did it ever go away?
Very relieved to read this thread. I've been feeling this same symptom for some time, off and on. I've had lots of back problems so thought this was just a new twist on an old theme. But then my imagination started to run away with me -- you know you hear those stories: "He thought he just had a back-ache and by the time he went to a doctor, the tumor was as big as a grapefruit and that was it for him!" So, at least no one has horror stories to tell here, so I'll go back to putting ice-packs between my shoulder blades and tell my imagination to take a rest, too.

I woke in the night with agonising back pain between my shoulder blades. I could not get comfy and was so hot. I found the following morning that when I swallowed the pain ten folded. I had not done any strenuous exercise or moved any furniture ect. I thought that I may have slept awkwardly or twisted in bed but cant ease this pain. I'm scared I have something more serious than a strained muscle. please can anyone help.
I have been experiencing a back twinge, almost a slight burning sensation when I swallow. It's not painful just very annoying. It is just under my left shoulder blade between my spine and the side of my back - closer to the spine. I never realized how many times a day I swallowed when not specifically eating until this annoyance started getting my attention.
I've been reading the posts to see if any one has this specific type sensation. Sometimes if I sit in a specific position, I can rouse that twing/burn feeling.
I'm as anxious as every one else to see what the correlation is between swallowing and this irritation.
