Acid Reflux after PM install

I had my PM installed about 3 months ago. The next day they thought that there might me a lead issue (it could slip out) and I went into the hospital to get this remedied.  But the cardiac surgeon did a few more tests and decided that it was OK after all.

About 3 weeks ago I suddenly developed what seemed like heartburn. I had an EKG and it was OK. 

The symptoms are strange - always, when heading out for a walk, after about 20 steps the “heartburn” starts. Then after about 30 minutes of walking it moderates and mostly vanishes.

i have cut out all the acid reflux foods but nothing seems to help. Can this be a PM lead issue?

Could be.

I've heard of leads stimulating the diaphragm so I don't see why acid reflux would be impossible. Time for answers. "If not the leads, what?"
