What Causes Chest Pain Along With Acid Reflux?

Severe pain in chest, like heartburn x 1000. Dark urine although I drink at least 60 oz of water each day. Diarreah and vomited once when the pain was almost unbearable. Not eating anything different. Did break out in a rash on only my face and scalp. It has gone now. Been taking OTC medicine for heartburn. Not helping. I am a 67 year old male in overall good health. 5 10 190 lbs. I play golf 5 days a week, do not smoke, have an occassional drink and on no medications. See doctor frequently for check ups.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

In my opinion, you should definitely get done ECG and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases because of your severe chest pain. If both of these are normal, then no need to worry about heart diseases.

Uncontrolled GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is likely cause for your heartburn, chest pain. So, take Pantoprazole and Levosulpiride combination drugs on an empty stomach twice daily.

Avoid hot and spicy food, junk food, stress, and tension and be relax and calm. You can also keep 2 to 3 pillows below your head in bed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar
