Hi Deedee,

I'm sorry for the worry you're feeling. Your boyfriend is on the young side of the heart attack average age so that's a good thing. If he has not seen his doctor, that is his first step. Neck pain can cause radiating pain into the arms and back. If he is taking meds for the pain, this can upset the stomach. So, first stop, your family physician. If you don't have one, you might try an Immediate Care office. In the meantime, may I suggest taking some deep breaths and rather than putting your body (and your own heart) through the worry, be proactive in finding out what might be wrong, and take steps to help him feel better. Good luck!
