Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Looking to your age and complain it is mandatory that you get your self examined by your physician.
There could be various reason for this kind of complain like
1. Heart problem
2. Rise in blood pressure
3. Acidity or gas related problem
4. Muscular pain etc.
Still it advisable that you visit your doctor and get your self examined. Your doctor after examination will decide the need of ECG(cardiogram) etc.
Low HDL is noted; it is not very low so just keep your lipid profile check on regular basis and do some diet modifications and exercise as per advice of your doctor to increase it.
At present what is required is visit to a doctor. Any discomfort in heart area needs to be looked for the cause carefully and should be treated without ignoring it.
I hope this helps.
Please write again if you have something more to ask, in case of no further query please accept the answer.
