Best advice is to...: ...get evaluated for your reassurance. If your primary care doctor can't see you today, then to to the ER and let them examine and advise you. Ever have esophageal spasms?

Esophagus: The symptoms locate your pain in the esophagus. Whether you have an ulcer, fissure, erosion, foreign body, diverticulum or other issue is unknown until you're evaluated. A gastroenterologist would be a better bet than the ER where they will determine that your problem isn't life-threatening and release you.
