What Are The Side Effects Of An Acid Reflux Endoscopy?

What are the side effects of and acid reflux endoscopy? I had the test done on Monday October 21. 2013. There was also a monitoring device put there to see the level of the reflux. But every since then I have had a sharp pain in my chest when I eat or drink. I never had that before the test.
