It's always better to go to the ER and find out it is GERD, than to have a heart attack and not go to the ER. I know you will go if you have the pain again! Remember too, that women often have heart pain in their back or shoulder blade, and even up in the jaw. I know you mentioned that you knew women's symptoms are often different than mens, which is typically in the chest and down the left arm. So, pay attention, young lady, and get to the ER if you have ANY more pain in the upper chest, back, jaw area!

HMMM..... maybe you ARE having heart pain in your leg! LOL! Hope you find out what is causing it! And yes, I can completely understand why you have had so many health problems in the last couple of years. You've been to hell and back!

Hmmm never heard of anyone having it in their leg before, but i guess anything is possible.
I did look up the symptoms of a blood clot but they didn't match mine.

If i am standing at the kitchen sink with no weight on that leg it just kill's me, also just sitting on the couch either with my leg up or down, it can be fine for a while and then just out of the blue it will start hurting, also walking bothers it.
So what ya say doc LOL

I don't think I have a clue on this one! Where does it hurt? Is it shooting? or is it in one place? It's not your sciatic nerve is it - starts in butt and goes down your leg? Probably not, you've had back issues, and would likely know what sciatica feels like.

Hmmmm.... I dunno!
