What Causes Chest Pain With Intermittent Pricking Pain?

I am 48 years old female, 82 kg, 5'6" tall. For last 6 days I am having continuous mild chest pain in the center & sometimes in the left side (middle of breast ) , also some pricking pain in the upper left side. If I take ANTACID then the pain reduces but is not completely gone. Could this be heart problem ? My ECG & ECO ,done 6 months before is normal.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yoi are in perimenopousal age. And in the this age, women are at increased risk of heart disease.
So better to get done fresh ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Take combination of antacid (pantoprazole) and prokinetic (levosulperide) drug twice daily before food.
Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
