Brief Answer:
Get an investigation done.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting a query to HCM.
Usually the cardiac pain will start from chest and radiate to the left hand. But in your care as chest uneasiness is there, hence i suggest you to get an ECG and 2 D echo done. This helps to rule out the exact diagnosis. Don't worry too much cause gastritis or any muscle spasm will also present with similar symptoms.

Take care.
