What Causes Persistent Squeezing Pain In Rib Cage Below The Breasts?

In last 2 weeks I have had quick onset of squeezing pain in my rib cage just below my breasts. Last week it woke me from sleep, I felt as if I could not catch a breathe and then became neauseated. I felt better once o threw up and the pain subsided. Today within last 30 mins was lying on bed and could feel pressure building until I could not breathe, vomited but pain did not subside for about 10 minutes

Hello
Now this is tricky. Squeezing chest pain associated with breathlessness and nausea.
I'm going to suggest you to get an ECG or preferably treadmill test done so we can rule out angina here.

Hope this helps
Regards
