[|Human|] I am Mei, I have experience this couple of days after eating a very short while, I feel my heart beat faster chest pain, back side of left arm pain. Seem short of breath. it last about half a n hour to one hour and gone. Specially at lunch time. What can I do?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your symptoms are seen after eating, so possibility of HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is more. But better to rule out heart diseases first, because all these symptoms are commonly seen in heart diseases. So first get done ECG, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test). If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. You are mostly having stress induced HERD. It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause the symptoms of chest pain. So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm. Take proton pump inhibitors. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals. Don't worry, you will be alright, but first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
