none of your problems sound related. I've had TMJ for years and never had chest/arm pain. Go see a doctor. Considering that you are obese you will want to make sure that you arent having mini strokes

7 years ago I've been involved in a car wreck and even since suffered with severe on and off facial and jaw pain. I've tried almost everything western medicine had to offer and had visited countless of specialist, had done ct scans, and therapies but to no avail. The doctors I have been to had persisted that there wasn't anything wrong with me and that almost drove me crazy as I was going through hell from this condition. According to all my symptoms I was diagnosed by a holistic doctor as having TMJ and he had recommended this book to me. After following the recommendation in the book for several weeks, it had changed my life. I got immediate relief after following the unique set of exercises in the book and after 2 weeks the jaw and face pain had completely gone. I only wish I would have ordered this program years ago. It would have saved me a lot of pain and anguish.

Considerable stress can affect TMJ (clenching your jaw and grinding your teeth at night). when I was going through a stressful period, I was doing these things (I didn't realize I was doing these things until I spoke with my dentist). Stress can also effect heart rate, but like the other commenters mentioned, it is a good idea to speak to your doctor about all these thing. Some of these things could be triggered by stress but there could be a medical issue that only a doctor can diagnose. Make sure you tell your doctor everything that's going on (physical symptoms and stressors) to give him/her the clearest picture to help you. Hope you feel better soon.
