Chest Pain

I am not on Humira but have had problems with chest pains from gallstones, and also from a flare that involves my esophagus. Are these pains like waves of spasms that come and go or are they more like a steady burn? Could be Gerd also. I wouldn't let this go too long without medical attention!Do you notice these pains after a heavy meal?
Lots of questions, I know...but no answers...I'm sorry....hopefully someone else will be able to relate more closely and be along real shortly.
Good luck....hope you are feeling better soon!

well i went to sleep lastnight and i woke up with no chest pains. I did have a pretty heavy meal before sitting down, but im not sure if thats the cause. and the antiacids thing i didnt try just because the dr said anything like that wouldnt be good for me. It felt like burning but it would get worse then back off, and so on. Im going to the dr tomorrow! by the way what is gerd?

When I was first dx. with Crohns and in a flare, I was having terrible chest pains that the doctors could not explain. For some strange reason, when I started the Prednisone, the chest pains disappeared! My brother in law is a cardiologist, and thinks that maybe my chest pain was muscular, which is why the steroids would have helped. I agree with Gachrons that I also try not to eat much past dinner to avoid indigestion. I also like Pepcid AC...for some reason that works better for me than the Protonix, which was very expensive and supposed to be stronger! If I have learned anything, it's that you have to experiment with what works for you, as we all seem to have our own idiosyncratic ways of responding. Glad to hear you are feeling better!
