What Causes Temporary Confusion And Tightening Of Chest?

Hi, my name is Kimmie. I am a female, age 57, 5 7 , 210 pounds. Last evening I experienced confusion. I drank a half of my milk and wanted a full glass. Instead of pouring more milk into the glass I poured water into it. I hadn t even realized it till my husband pointed it out to me. I then set my plate of food on the counter. Turned around to go into the dining room and wondered why my plate wasn t on the table. My husband then told me I had just put it on the counter. I seemed to be confused in my speech and thoughts. During the middle of the night I had a severe tightening, pressure, pain in the middle of my chest. I noticed I wasn t breathing. I forced myself to take a deep breath. I laid there wondering what had just happened. I eventually fell asleep. I have never experienced anything like this before. Should I be worried.
