Do Heaviness And Indigestion After Eating And Exertion Indicate Heart Trouble?
is it a heart problem when you feel some heaviness after eating... and indigestion ... burping ... heartburn?I did some heavy lifting and climbing stairs two days ago and have had these symptoms since. I had similar symptoms before and it came with a pinched nerve. I am thinking maybe thats why again...
Hello, I understand your concerns. Some gastric related symptoms may also mimic some heart issues and reverse so you should be caotious about your difficulties. Also, both disorders may coexist. Your symptoms sound like typical gastritis or GERD but if there is also easy fatigue and heart palpitations then cardiologic work up is mandatory in every case. Wish you good health.
