What Causes Burning Sensation In Lower Rib Cage Area?

I feel a burning sensation in the lower ribcage area....heart? Then a sensation will travel up to my jaw. This has occurred three times. It last about 20-30 minutes and goes away. And this happens about a month apart. I saw my dr. About four months ago just a check up with bloodwork and all was well. But I had not had this sensation at that time. Any thoughts?
