Sometimes stomach problems can be felt as chest discomfort. best to get it checked out. My husband had heart attack at age 46. If I didn't know his symptoms were heart related he would have died that night. He had "heartburn" with nausea and couldn't decide if he would get vomiting or diarrhea also a cold sweat. Other symptoms are if the pain radiates (spreads) to the shoulder area mostly to the left side and general uneasy feeling, and shortness of breath.
