What Causes Severe Chest Pain On Left Side And Breathlessness?

I have been having severe chest pain and shortness of breath for a little over a year. It is right by my sternum on the left and right side. When I inhale in I also notice that the right side of my ribs is larger than the left side. My pain is usually on the left.
