What Could Chest Pain With Light Headedness Suggest?

I m having chest pains like crazy. They re located in the middle of chest and spread out about and inch or two and radiate up the front of my neck. I m also slightly light headed almost as if I ve been running too much. What could this be? Thank you for your time.-Amanda

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Chest pain with dizziness is commonly seen in high blood pressure and heart disease.
So better to first get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg and 2d echo.
If all are normal than no need to worry for hypertension and cardiac diseases.
Stress induced GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) can also cause central chest pain and dizziness.
So better to avoid stress and tension. Start proton pump inhibitors. Drink plenty of fluids orally.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
So don't worry, you will be alright.
But first rule out hypertension and heart disease.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
