i have had gerd and it has never caused increased heart rate. i think you should have your heart checked asap. it could be heart trouble so consider calling a ambulance to the nearest emergency room. it is better to be safe than worry about looking foolish. too many people die because of that reason.
does heart burn cause increased heart rate? . i get this feeling of a burning sensation that starts in the top of my stomach and then cause my heart to pound and increase to 135 beats per min. i then feel nauseous and get some anxiety.
