I suffer from globus and slight shortness of breath after rapid onset exercise but not from slow onset exercise. Recent severe GERD and paroxysmal AF. Physiotherapist has detected (recent) scoliosis between shoulder blades. Had treadmill test with excellent results on Bruce protocol and NO evidence of ECG changes indicating coronary artery obstruction. Feel generally ill some of the time. Symptoms sometimes relieved by eating. I am male and 59 years old. I have history of manual work and used to be athletic before arthritis stepped in. Had recent neck pain. Can all this be explained by pressure on a spinal (thoracic or cervical) nerve?
