You are incorrect - the best diagnosis based on our patient's initial history is angina pectoris.


Your choice: Reflux esophagitis
Patients with reflux esophagitis typically present with epigastric or lower substernal chest discomfort that is usually not related to exertion and is frequently burning in character. The discomfort often occurs after meals or during position changes such as bending over or recumbency. It is relieved by antacids and is the most common cause of non-cardiac chest pain.
