Doesn't sound so good. You need to go to the doctor or the ER to rule out any heart problems ASAP. Wouldn't you like to feel better now. I will be praying for you.

General Information
Not all chest pain is serious, but until your doctor has examined you it is always safer to assume that your chest pain is serious.
The most life-threatening cause of chest pain is a heart attack. Other serious causes include angina, pneumonia, lung blood clots, or a collapsed lung.
Some common causes of chest pain are not serious (e.g. muscle strain, chest wall arthritis, and acid reflux).
