In response to:
Acid reflux or heartburn is the sensation that occurs when acid from the stomach and intestine "backflow" into the esophagus.  This can be caused by a painful sensation in the mid-chest area and is the most common cause of non-cardiac chest pain.  Pain between the shoulder blades would be uncommon, but can occur.  Since it is a more unusual location, other problems should be ruled out and/or a treatment trial with medication for acid reflux may be tried to see if there is a good response.
