Q: I have nausea, pain in my chest that gravitates, shortness of breath, burning/itching on my chest

My nausea has been for several weeks.  My shortness of breath occurs usually when I bend over ot pick something up.  I also have some pain under my left shoulder but it is short lived.  My father had a heart attack in his 40's - I am in this age bracket now too.

its possible that you have Gerd(gastric esophaegul reflux disease or some other type of stomach disorder. how active are you..? and do you smoke..? that could determine what you have. I would seek the advice from a doctor a.s.a.p just to be sure. Your health is very important dont risk it man.
