Suggest Treatment For Soreness In Heart And Breathing Difficulty

My heart hurts as if it were sore. I tried drinking some sips of water and putting a cold bottle of water on top of my heart, but it won't go away. Please help!!! It started to hurt just before midnight tonight!


Additional Details
I have depression (Itake 60 mg of Fluoxetine [generic for Prozac]), and there is no aspirin in my house.
However, I took an ibuprofen.

It hurts more when I take a deep breath.

I need further details to rule out if its related to heart or not?
Like your age?/Any BP problem?
Is this discomfort increases on exertion?
Due you have any other problem like heaviness in your chest or left arm?
Its better to get yourself evaluated.
Get your ECG, ECHO and Stress TMT/ECHO.
