Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain With Acid Reflux

Hi. My name is Josie. My upper chest is hurting. The pain is between my collar bone and my breast, and it is constant. I had the same problem two weeks ago. I took three chewable aspirin and the didn t feel the pain anymore. I also wake up almost every day with right arm pain and a little numb. Since I didn t have that a year ago or even before that, it bothers me. I also suffer from acid reflux. I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night with the burning sensation in my throat and mouth from the acid. Any suggestion.
