Severe chest pain is concerning in that the symptoms of reflux often mimic those of problems with the heart. You should be checked by a doctor to determine the cause of the chest pain. It is definitely a case of better safe than sorry. It is possible though that the pain you are feeling is related to gas and irritable bowel. You may want to read more about IBS.
