Just as an additional comment, I have chest pain and it is from a fast heart rate and ended up finding out it was POTS.  All heart tests look good because it is the standing heart rate that is the problem so it looks good when I am sitting or laying down.  The longer my rate is up the more uncomfortable my chest gets, it just gets sore.  It was just an idea :)  The pupil thing I have had happen a few times.  My doctor actually saw it once which is funny because nothing ever seems to happen when the dr.'s are around. -zygy

  Yes, to all u mentioned ...the chest pain should be checked to make sure u do not have ne heart issues....I went to a cardio to make sure as I was having issues too.

The eye issues r also posted on another thread, but yes...this is chiari.....

But do go to ur Dr and get ur heart checked to be safe. And check for GERD issues too, so many of us have those too.
