Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Based on your description, I can think of few possibilities
1. Ischemic heart conditions - EKG / blood troponin levels needs to be done to rule out. Your doctor may also ask you to get stress test done.
2. Reflux oesophagitis - GERD and hiatus hernia needs be ruled out. Upper GI endoscopy test is entailed.
3. Muscle pains.
4. Stress and anxiety.
If the symptoms do not improve well with aleve, I encourage you to consult your good and helpful information. Should you have any more concerns, I will be available to answer them.
Regards
