A member asked:

Can acid reflux cause to feel like u got butterfly's in chest?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but...: Yes it can, . But other things can do that also. Check with your physician about taking a medication for reflux - prescription or over-the-counter. Also check your pulse. If the pulse is irregular or very swift, it can also feel that way.
