Have Chest And Shoulder Pain. Get Shortness Of Breath, Suffocation And Tired. Suggest?
Hi, I experience chest pain and pain in my left arm and shoulder now and then and gets worse when I drink te and coffee and even hot chocholate. When this happens, I get so tired that I cannot do anything but rest. I get shortness of breath, sense of suffocation in the chest area, abosultely tired to do anything. I cannot tolerate coffee and black tea even if I want to drink them all. I drink green te but now I cannot even drink that because every time I do, I feel the same. Recently I tried to drink hot chocholate because I needed something warm to drink and I sensed the same effect. What is this? I really do not get it.

hello dear,
thanks for your query at health care magic.
it appears that your suffering from gastro esophageal reflux diseases or (gerd).
in this stomach contents will enter into esophagus that will irritate and cause symptoms like pain abdomen , chest pain, cough, breathlessness,
coffee contain caffiene that cause relaxation of spincher between stomach and esophagus to loosen that cause food to enter esophagus.
try to avoid coffee as far as possible
use rabeprazole tablet daily two times before taking meals .
if symptoms not releaved on medication you may have to go further investigation like endoscopy.
thank you.
