Hi Don'tStealMyBacon,Sorry to hear you're having such pain! Definitely get to the ER. I'm sure they can help you. It's possible you're having esophageal spasms/nutcracker esophagus, and there are meds that you can be given to help.
Here are a couple links with information about
esophageal spasms. Take note of the descript
ion of "nutcracker esophagus". It sounds like what you're having.

Good luck!
