I've been experiencing a really sharp pain on the left side of my neck that feels like being poked with a big needle. It's been going on for a few days now. Should I be worried? What could be causing this?

Considering your symptoms and test results, it's possible that your chest pain is related to:

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Esophageal spasm Musculoskeletal issue

Consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and treatment.

They may recommend additional tests, such as an endoscopy or pH monitoring.

In the meantime, continue with the antiacid and anti-gas medications as prescribed.
