Definitely. I am not sure how familiar you are with human physiology, so I will try to explain it in layman's terms. The body produces many different kinds of chemical messengers (a.k.a hormones). A chemical messenger can cause a group of symptoms. GERD (gastro esophageal reflux disease) causes pain. The pain radiates outward and causes chest pain. The body responses to pain by releasing 2 chemical messengers: norepinphrine and epinephrine. These chemical messengers increase the heart rate (i.e. sinus tachycardia). Other effects include increase in blood pressure.

sinus tachycardia is a rapid heart rate (pulse) has NOTHING to do with your sinus
