Hi,
from history it seems that you might be having some acid reflux or gastritis giving rise this problem.
Again many a time cardiac ailment like coronary insufficiency,angina can show this type of symptoms.
So go for EKG to rule out any cardiac problem.
Meanwhile continue with Zantac for few days.
Ok and take care.
