Thank you for asking
Chest pain and sore throat and burning sensations are all very classic of gastric discomfort like Gastroesophageal reflux disease and/ or gastritis.
You need to seek a gastroenterologist to Confirm this with following labs.
Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy/ esophagogastroduodenoscopy: Mandatory
Esophageal manometry: Mandatory
Ambulatory 24-hour pH monitoring: Criterion standard in establishing a diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease
Meanwhile diet and lifestyle modifications with some antacids will help relieve the pain.

Get sign up to Alcohol Anonymous and seek help to gradually resolve this addiction. Booze will ooze the health out of you.Coffee,Chocolates, citrus juices, tomato based products like ketchups, sauces, pastes etc, Peppermints, all the onion family, beans are some of the diet you need to avoid to relieve symptoms. If you are fond of eating, time to stop it. reduce diet intake, instead of increasing the quantity, increase the frequency, 5 times short meals instead of 3 bigger ones will be better. If you sleep just after or with in 3 hours of meal intake, this habit needs to be stopped. Increase the interval. When you sleep, elevating the head side of the bed at least 8 inches would be a good addition to the plan to combat GERD. Bending and stooping and upside down hangings with all other unnatural postures need to be avoided.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
May the odds be ever in your favour.
