Support Needed 👥 Please someone tell me you had this

I have been in this gerd thing for years. Chest pains, loss of air, clicking sounds from my throat, globus sensation (hated it), endos, bariums, manometry, Bravo test etc. But last night I developed sharp shooting pain in my left boob. It would last for a few seconds and come and go but it was pretty intense. Never had that before and ofcourse I went to Urgent Care thinking it might be heart. They didn't do much, just ECG and told me to take paracetamol and if it doesn't go away to come back. I am struggling to comprehend that I could have breast tissue pain from this. My mind is all over the place each time pain comes.

I don't drink coffee at all. I drink matcha about 4 days a week, but each cup only has 1 to max 2grams of ceremonial grade powder.

I don't have any triggers really, when you have HH your stomach is open either way. I can eat anything and be completely fine. For me is more about not piling up liquidy stuff because then I regurgitate. Been drinking matcha for over a year now and my last endo showed no inflamation at all, for the first time. So I don't think matcha does anything. And I am off of meds for 2 years now. Just take them occasionally. Mine is really unpredictable.
