Non-cardiac chest pain

Name(s): 
Phantom chest pain
Nature 
Sufferers of non-cardiac chest pain complain of heart attack-like symptoms -- severe chest pain radiating down the arms.
Claim 
This pain is a mystery. It mimics symptoms of reflux or spastic contraction of the oesophagus without being this. It does not seem connected with an abnormality in the oesophagus but resulting from a dysfunction in the brain's processing of the signals from the oesophagus.
Type 
(G) Very specific problems
