Yes: Stomach and GI pains can easily be 'referred' to different parts of the chest - the abdomen is 'wired' with more neurons than the brain and can definitely cause pain in unusual areas - advil (ibuprofen) and testosterone are drugs that can contribute to ulcerative diseases.

Accepted Answer

: Your question got truncated, would recommend reposting, chest pain is always tricky in assigning a clear cause, heart is always ruled out first, GERD seems to be suggested in your circumstances.

Question 10

62 year old f w/ chest pain 3 wks, chills 3 mos and sweating.  ekgs, echo and cts normal.  ulcers treated for 5 mos.  any thoughts?

Accepted Answer

Gastroenterologist: 3 weeks of chills and sweats are a concern. Apparently your heart and lungs have checked out ok. Perhaps a gastroenterologist should evaluate your esophagus. I assume you also had a complete physical exam and extensive blood and urine testing through your physician. Has a treadmill stress test been done as well to evaluate your chest discomfort or does he/she feel the chest pains are not cardiac?
