Chest/back pain
For the last few months I randomly get pain in my middle back along with pain underneath my sternum/under rib cage. It radiates through my chest and also affects my chest. I've had ultrasound, blood tests, breath test. I've tried nexium for 4 months, buscopan too. Nothing helps. The pain is disabling. Please help
