Can mild, non-erosive gastropathy cause chest pain an pressure in the chest area?60-years old, have been having chest pain and pressure for 2 1/2 months and awoke one night with such pain thought I was having a heart attack.  Went to ER, Xray showed a mass, Cat scan showed a peracardial cyst on heart.  All other tests (Nuclear stress, blood, MIR, etc etc) negative except for for a mild, non-erosive gastropathy.Drs wont operate to remove cyst and want to wait to treat gastropathy but I am tired and want treatment.  How should I proceed?

### output:

Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. Yes, non-erosive osteopathy can cause chest pain and pressure. It actually causes HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause the symptoms. So better to follow these steps for symptomatic relief. 1.  Avoid stress and tension. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food. 2. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals. 3. Start proton pump inhibitors and prokinetic Chat Doctor.  Go for walk after meals. 4. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in bed to prevent reflux. 5. Lose weight if you are obese. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits. Don't worry, you will improve by all these lifestyle modifications. Hope I have solved your query.  Wish you good health. Thanks.
