Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Mid chest pain may be due to gastritis or bronchitis or cardiac pain or muscular pain or herpes zoster etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week. Consult your physician he will take ECG and check for other causes of cardiac pain and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
