What Cause Server Pain In Breastbone Which Disappear When Taking Antacid?
About once a month, and generally when seated I experience a severe pain in my around my breastbone which
disappears almost completely once I take an antacid. Some soreness does remain in the immediate area for
a period of time. There are no other symptoms accompanying these events. I have been diagnosed with both
atrial fibrillation as well as acid reflux.
Thank you,
