What Causes Severe Chest Pain After Eating?

Today, I am having pain in my chest, but I find that it occurred after eating. Could it be GERD. As I have had this condition in the past. It has lasted 4 hours and I have taken 2 81 mg aspirin and 1 Zantac. It seems to be less, but the pain is not completely gone yet.

the most common cause of pain in chest after food / empty stomach are basically due to gastric ulcers may be a peptic ulcer or duodenal ulcer. you can use a proton pump inhibitor for that, empty stomach ,that would help u a lot.
consult a general physician who can interpret your ecg to rule out any cardiac causes which as lesser probability.
