Have to make clear not a medical professional and passing on my own personal experience. Based on your post (my wife and I have this burning sensation) it sounds like heart burn (GERD).

I and my wife have are being treated for GERD. Mine, I was told, is called silent reflux disease.

Angina I have read (not a medical professional) is usually a pain, tightness, etc. It would indicate need to seek medical attention as signals a cardiovascular problem that needs to be diagnosed and medically treated.

Have you informed your cardiologist of this burning sensation?

Good morning,
The pain has disappeared today. I think it may have been a result of bruising on my chest from the paddle of the echocardiogram. There’s a significant bruise on my chest.
That’s my theory anyway.
Thanks.
