While a full cure without surgery for GERD and its associated chest pain is possible for some individuals, it's not a guaranteed outcome for everyone. Lifestyle changes and medications are often the first-line treatments, but surgery can be a long-term solution for some

I'm 20 years old and have a height of 5'10'' with a weight of 91 kg. About 4 months ago, I got a checkup, and everything was normal with my ECG and 2d Echo no cholesterol or sugar issues. The only thing was my vitamin B levels were at 93. Lately, I've been experiencing this strange pain every night in my left abdomen, right below the ribs, and sometimes I feel pain in my shoulder, neck area, and even in my arms on the left side. These pains come and go quickly, but the abdomen pain sticks around a little longer. I also have acidity and get reflux at night, with the pain happening around the same time when I'm just settling in bed. I'm just wondering if there's anything I should be concerned about with these symptoms or if there's something I can do to feel better.

Acidity could be the probable cause of your chest pain. U can take tab pan d, orally ,before food for atleast 2 weeks, avoid spicy foods,junk foods and alcohol,.

An eosinophil count of 5 is slightly elevated, as the normal range is typically between 0-4%.

Remedies may include antihistamines, corticosteroids, or immunomodulators, depending on the underlying condition.
