you could have pleurisy which is:
Pleurisy is an inflammation of the lining of the lungs that causes pain when you take a breath or cough,
Pleurisy may develop when you have lung inflammation due to infections such as pneumonia or tuberculosis. It may also occur with rheumatic diseases, chest trauma, certain cancers, and asbestos-related disease.
When you have pleurisy, the normally smooth lining of the lung (the pleura) become rough. The rub together with each breath, and may produce a rough, grating sound called a "friction rub." This sound can be heard with the stethoscope, or when you place an ear against the patient's chest.
The main symptom of pleurisy is pain in the chest. Sometimes the pain may be felt in the shoulder.
Deep breathing, coughing, and chest movement makes the pain worse.
you should go see a doctor and they will give you a shot to ease the pain and give you a z pack probably!

Yeah, I agree, its not a heart attack. You're probably eating too quickly and you've given yourself a bit of heartburn. If it's a heart attack you'll feel numbness, tingling and pain in your arm,legs as well.
Ring the hospital emergency room and tell them your symptoms if you're panicking. Things like shortness of breath and faintness will need immediate attention.

angina--due to lack of circulation or stress....I will add that If you are truly worried do more research online about heart related conditions as well as having a chat with your doctor and taking better care of yourself.

Fordy, get to the doctors real soon. If it is your heart it is something to be checked right away.

Acid reflux. Don't worry, it's not a heart attack. That would be a long trobbing pressure around your whole chest.
