See your doc: Can be a few things but GERD (gastroesophageal reflux) and stomach ulcer are at the top of my list. Other things are esophageal spasm, hiatal hernia, and esophageal diverticulum. I think its best to see your doc.

TMJ: Treatment options for TMJ are plentiful and include dental appliances, anti-inflammatories, and rarely, injections or surgery -- this should first be discussed with your dentist, who may refer you to an oral surgeon or back to your primary care provider.

Pain on top of both shoulders?

Dr. Marc Hirsch answered

Trapezius: Pain along the top of your shoulders and toward the neck suggests irritation of the top edge of the trapezius muscles. You stress those muscles when you lift weight from below in a rowing motion. It's not necessarily bad if it's from exercise. Try a warm, damp towel around the back of your neck and over your shoulders. Also Acetaminophen or aspirin. If worsening see doctor.
