Sounds like pain from the GERD, (gastroesophagial relfux disease)., This simply means that the acids from your stomach are coming back up your esaphogaus and into your throat...Tastes nasty I know.....The pain you feel is from the acid hitting the nerve endings of the esaphagaus and the throat which there are many...This pain often can be referred to the chest, neck, throat, jaw, shoulder, arm, and back...Referred means it is happening in one place, but the nerves refer the pain message to another place.....All this pain and worry is causing you to have some anxiety and/or panic attacks which is causing your heart to race and causing your shortness of breath.....First lets get this pain under control: Get a glass of very Cold water, drink it slowly, but all of it at the same time.....This should give you a little bit of relief....Next I want you to get a large bottle of Mylanta and a large bottle of Tums. These will be your best friend for the next couple of days.....Do not eat anything, but dry toast, crackers, plain white rice, boiled potatoes, boiled chicken without the Skin, mashed bananas, and water......I know this will be hard because you like to eat, but if you want to calm all this down until you can get some prescription Medicine listen to me....Anytime you start to feel the pain, drink the cold water, wait about 15 minutes, the cold changes the way your Brain receives the pain messages...Then if you still hurt take a good slug of the Mylanta. Wait another 15 minutes...If pain continues them take two Tums...Read the labels and do not take more than reccommended.....This should get you through the pain...Now as far as your heart and shortness of breath. This is because you are in pain but also because you are scared.....Take some slow deep breaths once the pain has calmed down a little......The pain will come and go as your stomach produces acid, but do not skip meals because that leaves nothing but acid in your stomach and it will Reflux up if it has no food to work on, If you don't feel like Eating because of nause, which can sometimes happen just eat a piece of plain bread so there is something to soak up the acids and pass them through....So concentrate on your breathing, and make yourself calm down...You will find that your heart will slow down and your breathing will become normal again......Once you see doctor specifically for the GERD, he will prescribe Medication to decrease the acid production in your stomach, he will put you on a low fat, no spicy diet which you must follow for this to get better or all of this will happen again....Make sure you ask a lot of questions and write down the answers, do some searches on google, talk to his Nurse she will be able to give you hand outs on the diet.....This is not happening to you because you are obese....Many people have this problem, both skinny and heavy....but you must do the diet change to make a difference in how you feel. This disease can control you, or you can control this disease. It's your choice....I hope I have helped you....I suffer from this same thing and have for years, so this is not just experience talking but also an RN......Feel better....
