Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

GERD???: If the feeling in the chest is at all like "heartburn" it could be gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). If he has a big belly bending over could cause these symptoms. Usually heart based Sx are not related to bending over. To be sure see your doc.
