Hi everyone! So recently I’ve been having a lot of mid to upper back pain. I went to the ER two weeks ago because it was just so relentless and it’s honestly not a pain in use to having, I was worried it might have been a problem with my kidneys or gallbladder. The ER doctor rain some blood work, chest X-ray, and CT and everything came back okay. So the past two days I’ve been having some heartburn, which is something I’m use too. I was diagnosed with GERD and Gastroparesis a few years ago, so it’s something I’ve encountered in the past. The back pain eased up and almost went away completely, but now it’s back.
Now what started my worries is that the back pain is back and now I’ve had some really bad heartburn as well. The burning is in my chest and my throat. I’m so worried that I could be having problems with my heart and then the anxiety of it makes the pain worse. I don’t know what else to do. It doesn’t help that my mom passed away suddenly a year ago to a massive heart attack, she didn’t have any symptoms aside from heartburn and now that’s all I can think of
