Burning Pain

I have just been diagnosed with GERD, i was having chest pain for a few weeks, today I had an onset of burning pain, i feel a constant burning pain through my rib line and across my chest and it even stretches to my back.It doesnt feel anything like the pains i have had with GERD. Is this a sign of an ulcer of pancreatic problems?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

May I ask are you on meds for the gerd?....How long are u on the meds?

It is possible to have such pains, but u do need to take meds and follow some lifestyle changes.

If u have done all that and u feel u r getting worse, or the onset of pain is after taking a new med....call ur dr.
