Probably indigestion or esophageal spasm. A heart attack is way, way down the list of probabilities in a 22 year old. Pain from angina or a heart attack tends to be a crushing, squeezing type pain from under your sternum.

Gastric influx i guess. You are too young to have a heart attack unless you have a history of heart problem. Just go for a routine check to your GP.

maybe a sever panic attack. don't take it lightly...find a way to get to the hospital or try to get intouch with an advise nurse to see what you should do befor you go to the hospital. Either way, get looked at.

I wouldn't freak out about it ... It's not a heart attack or you wouldn't been able to type.
It may be a gas pain or indigestion I get those all the time when i eat.
