The location of the stomach entrance where GERD symptoms are most prominent is just to the left of and behind the heart. The pattern of symptoms can vary with the patient. For some the pain is dull and constant, for some it is random and biting Reducing caffeine intake/nicotine or laying down after meals can improve symptoms.
