I never had any problems until a week ago.  I just started having what felt like heart palpitations.  Scared me to death.  They came and went.  Talked to my Chiropractor. Since I have Scoliosis  in my spine, he said it could be the spine pushing into my chest.  He adjusted me, it let up. Now, I notice, when I eat, it starts, then moves down to my tummy.  He suggested to be checked out. [heart, and stomach].  It is such a scary feeling.  I feel fine otherwise.  Hope all of us who have this, get fixed. It is a terrible thing to have. Good luck to all of you.

I have been having the twittery, fluttery spasms under the sternum too! It all started happening after two courses of antibiotics and allot of dental work. I think it is partially due to antibiotic use and nervousness about the dental work which has brought on indigestion-allot of burping along with slight heart palpitations. Now on third week of this craziness. So I have found relief from probiotics and highly diluted apple cider vinegar. 1 T to large cup of warm water with honey. I drink this before eating. To protect teeth use a straw to sip mixture and rinse your mouth out well after using vinegar concoction.

I think we have the same answers to this stomach problem, I think the acid cause the stomach to spasm against the big artery in the stomach that causes digestion. some times it is real bad when I eat ice cream. it cause my heart to skip a beat that causes a slow heart beat. when this happens it cause me to get slightly dizzy, and my breathing is sort of shallow. I also be very uncomfortable and nervous.

Be careful drinking a lot of milk... depending on your diet, and your body and age, you will eventually build up enough calcium in your kidneys to develop stones. If you think this pain and palpitations in your stomach and chest is bad, just wait till you go to pass a stone! ive had 3 lithotripsies performed... wearing a stint home for a week is pure he**.

I have exactly the same symptoms. The dietician, GP, and cardiologist treat me like I'm nuts. I was told to go see a psychologist and just my luck she has a similar heart problem with indeterminate cause and treatment. So at least I can beat that "crazy" rap while seeking a cure. Green juice helps more than Metropolol: Lettuce, carrot, string beans, ginger, banana, papaya and almonds with 4 ounces of real orange juice in a NutriBullet. More effective than Prilosec and Metoprolol.

Try unfiltered, unpasteurized vinegar (Braggs)
Seems like the last thing you'd want to drink, but it works every time for me.
The potassium? The pH? The 'mother'?
A combination in that specific type of vinegar works well for me. Immediately stops heartburn and within minutes stops the upper stomach kicking I get after eating/drinking the wrong things.

Were your symptoms resolved by the treatment of H Pylori? I have same symptoms and have just taken the blood test for H. Pylori. Awaiting results.
