I'm really worried because I've been feeling dizzy for a few days now. Since yesterday morning, I've also noticed a slight pain in the upper left side of my chest, and its making me uncomfortable. I'm not sure what's causing this since I have a gastric problem, but it doesn't feel related to that. Who should I reach out to about this? Any advice would be appreciated.

I've been having chest pain when I take deep breaths, mostly in the upper part of my chest. I looked it up online, and based on my symptoms, it says surgery might be needed. Could this be GERD or something else?

Chest pain, especially when taking deep breaths, can have several causes, including GERD, lung conditions, heart problems, and even anxiety. While GERD is a possibility, it's important to rule out other conditions like pneumonia or pulmonary embolism, as they can also cause chest pain with deep breathing.
