hiw welcome to hcm
ihave read your query and concerned regarding your problems
as you are saying you are having chest pain which is coming and going with sweating,sob,severe headache it might be because of following reasons
1.you need to rule out ant cardiac (heart) problems fist by taking an ecg.generally cardiac pain will be more of constrictive in nature with sweaing and radiating to left shoulder or back
2.you need to rule out lung diseases by taking an xray .
3.it might be due to simple gastritis which will be relieved by taking aPPI(omeprazole/rabiprazole)

so iwould suggest you to take aPPI if not relieved better vist a physician and take a chest xray and ecg

hope you get well soon
with warm regards
Dr NSK
