i get same thing,mine radiates to my back though,ive had thousands of dollars in tests,gallbladder/pancreas..barrium swallow,2 ct scans,blood work,and all came back ok.
i also get that weard upward pressure after eating and i luv to eat,so we got a problem folks!
i think this has either something to do with esophigeal spasms,,,or some kind of unseen hernia like in the area where the esophigaus attaches to the stomach.
believe me its not in her mind,and something is wrong,i deal with pain every day and have been on and off for 9 years now.
check into sphincter of oddi disfunction. this could be something..
all i know is everything is just an educated guess and you people yourself can almost diagnos yourselves.
these docs anymore are just about pushing meds,and not fixing the problems.
if they fix ya,you would have to come back right?
Sorry to hear this. I can relate to the symptoms you mentioned. Mine is similar except that the pain remains under the chest and doesn't radiate to my arms. Note that I have separate other symptoms happening that I think are related. I also sometimes feel like my esophagus/stomach is vibrating, it doesn't hurt, but is very uncomfortable when it does this.
I also have a clean endo and barium swallow. I've been taking Priloseec 40mg/day and Reglans 2/day to help. I think it may be helping slightly.
In my case, it seems like it usually better for a couple hours after eating and then I experience the pain, whereas I thought GERD sufferers feel the pain more quickly after they eat.
