Brief Answer:
Most likely due to Gerd associated with higher anxiety levels.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic For your query,
Have gone through your details.
Most likely stomach pain with sweating was because of Gastritis and heart burn along with high levels of anxiety.
Sweating can be seen in angina but its not mandatory that if pain is associated with sweating its always angina.
However to rule out coronary artery disease i would recommend you some baseline tests of cardiology like-
Stress test-Stress test-Any ischemia to cardiac muscles will be reflected in stress test.
2D echo to see the cardiac functions and wall motility.
Combine together with echo they have a sensitivity rate of more then 85% to rule out coronary artery disease.

If these tests are normal,The pain was due Gastric issues.
