Fast heartbeat with gerd?

with gerd(and hiatal hernia) does anybody get chills and shake with a little bit of chest discomfort? i get chest discomfort like i'm having a heart attack.. and chills and gas(belching) occurs as well. my heart starts to beat really fast. anybody experienced this?

My heart just feels like it's racing really fast.. it's off and on. the pain is just discomfort, not like pain like someone is sitting on me.. i've felt like this before with my GERD and hernia, but never liek this. my heart hasn't raced like this and i havne't had chills and shaking. i'm in good health.. i'm only 16. but i do suffer from anxiety.. so it might be that too?

I would venture to say that it is an extension of your Gerd and Axiety Symptoms, I have both of these issues. I included some things that I have typed up that I follow that may help you.

I am not a doctor, so either way you will want to talk to them, but this is what I have to say as a long time sufferer of Acid Reflux (G.E.R.D.)!

Three part answer: information, what not to do, and what to do!

INFORMATION!!!!!!
I have a very severe case of Acid Reflux (G.E.R.D.). I have had to go to the hospital for some of the heartburn that I have had because the pain can become overwhelming or your breathing can be effected. It can be caused by Smoking, Drinking Beverages with caffeine (My case with hereditary), Drinking Beverages with Alcohol, Stress, Anxiety or can be Hereditary

The good thing about G.E.R.D. is that it can be a temporary thing and can be cured. It is never a permit thing even if you end up with it for the rest of your life it has the ability to be cured.

G.E.R.D. is caused by too much acid being created in your stomach. This can lead to or cause ulcers, esophagus damage, heartburn and/or damage in the mouth. . Other symptoms that can be found in a few cases are dizziness, tingling in limbs, numbness of Limbs, Chest/Back pain focused on the left side (in most cases), and shortness/difficulty breathing.

WHAT NOT TO DO!!!!!!!!
In most cases, stress is a factor to the reflux if you watch what you eat and reduce some of the stress it will help. If you watch what you eat for about a week you should find relief, if you do not then that is when you definitely what to listen to the doctor. Things to watch for are as follows:

Fatty Foods
Citrus Foods
Oranges (Juice and fruit)
Lemon (Juice and fruit)
Foods That Contain Grease
Fried Foods
Potatoes (Starch)
Buffalo wings
Chocolate (including any Coco)
Caffeine
Smoking
Alcohol
Doughnuts
Brownies
Cake
Tomato Based Products
Lactose
Sour Cream
Cottage Cheese
High amounts of Carbohydrates
Roughage (Berries and Nuts)
Onions

WHAT TO DO!!!!
The two foods that I recommend is Black strap Molasses and Raw honey. The apple is better for night time reflux while these will work for just about all of it. What you will do is take about a tsp. of whatever one you chose. Molasses being the better because of strength and nutrition, but must be use to the taste. What the substance will do is stick to the sides of the esophagus and do two things, one is heal and the other is protect.
On the healing end, both substances have a healing property in them, and as they sit on the walls of the esophagus they will heal it. This is also helpful if you have a sore throat in the morning from refluxing.
On the protection end, both substances are high in sugar and when acid that is refluxed comes up to that the sugar will neutralize it and it will not longer be a problem at that point.

I would also look to putting Cinnamon and Ginger in you diet, they have been know to help with digestion and will help you reduce the amount of acid needed to brake down food, therefore causing you to reflux less.

How fast would you say your heart is raching?? do you suffer from panic attacks? if you are having chest pain off and on like someone is sitting on your chest and any type of pain down the left side of your arm you need to go to the doctors ASAP.. Chest pain is not anything to fool around with. Neither is tachycardia

Well your only sixteen but that doesnt mean that you may not be suffering from anxiety or panic attacks. You may be a cery nervous person and dont know. I think you should call your doctor anyway and just get looked at.. Better to be safe than sorry

If you have been diagnosed with GERD and Hiatal hernia, you must have been adviced on the treatment.
There are 2 methods. medication ( Gastroprotectors- Ex-Omeprazole , etc) and Surgery -Nissen fundoplication.
If your heart burn symptoms are not relieved by medication, you should undergo the surgery.
Heart burn can cause a feeling of chest pain but the symptoms are not similar to an Anginal attack.
The fast heart beat can be caused by anxiety due to the heart burn.
Heart burn has nothing to do with the heart, its just the reflux of acid from the stomach on the oesophagus.
Your GERD is more pronounced due to your Hiatal Hernia.
I suggest you consult your doctor.
