just here to offer an "i second that!" to bygrace's post- i, too, have
been told the same by my doctors, and since have been taking
medicine twice daily for GERD- and it has since stopped most of my
chest pain (except during a bad attack, of course). hard to believe that
what you're feeling isn't your heart, and i didn't believe it until i missed
a day of my GERD medicine and the symptoms returned! definately
helps when you know your heart isn't going to stop beating or explode.
