Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Fasting at 45 with only fruits and then milk might cause the symptoms of gas trouble and acidity like problems.
The breathing problems and heart pain can be due to cardiac causes and thus you should consult ER for EKG and cardiac check up under the care of a Cardiologist.
Take a PPI like Omeprazole, Antacids, Domperidone and take normal usual soft bland diet, your abdomen would be fine; if not consult your Doctor and get a reference for a Gastroenterologist.
