I think I Have GERD but...?I get sharp pains over my heart and I have trouble breathing. I also get palpitations and what seems to be my heart Fluttering(?). I go for walks when my chest hurts and I spent the entire walk belching and burping acid along with a burning chest., The strange part is when I get home I feel pains by where my heart is along with tingling in my left arm. I know that I have gerd because I am always spewing acid and I might have Hiatul Hernia, but is this normal could I have a heart Problem? Is there any other signs of heart problems that indicate I could have one? My Chest Xray says I have Chest Wall Pain and my EKG came back normal...is that good enough?

The cause for hyperacidity in your case could be stress and anxiety. Anxiety can also cause heart palpitations mostly due to increased heart rate. So all your symptoms are connected to GERD and there appears to be no connection to heart.
You should get tested for hiatus hernia as well as to detect H. pylori infection.
