[|Human|] Hi the other day I experienced chest pain on my left side for an hour or so, I also had pain in my left shoulder and a little in my neck. I felt really hot all of a sudden and my left arm had felt dull achy all day. Im a 40 year old non smoking woman. Can u give me an idea as to what it was.
[|AI|]  Hi. I can understand your concern. Ideally ECG and 2d echo should be done done first in your case. If both are normal than no need to worry about heart diseases. HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) can cause similar kind of chest pain. HERD is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause central chest pain and nausea. You can take proton pump inhibitors (Pepcid). But along with Chat Doctor.  Avoid stress and tension. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits. Go for walk after meals. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in the bed to prevent reflux. Lose weight if you are obeseDont worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
