Hi thanks for your question
Upper abdominal pain along with vomiting which is referred to upper abdomen and breast area is most probably due to GERD,that is gastro esophageal reflux disorder. Your Doctor is right, unless proved otherwise by upper G I endoscopy. I would suggest you to consult a physician who may be able to perform upper G I endoscopy on you to confirm or rule out the diagnosis of GERD and may prescribe you treatment accordingly.
Hope this answers your question.
