ok that is one of the characteristics of hiatal hernia and what happens is a piece of your stomach is geting sucked up into your esophagus and thats why there is pain in back and shoulders and the feeling in your throat i have a hital hernia but mine is really bad when i have a flare up i feel like im having a heart attack it has the nick name the great mimic because the feeling is like that of a heart attack in severe cases which i have it sucks,unfortunately the only thing you can do for it is push downward on the top of your tummy to try and get your tummy back where it belongs..
