thanks for your question
you need to consult a physician to rule out
gastritis
peptic ulcer
angina
cardiac diseases
quit smoking and alcohol
physician can request for a chest xray , ecg and an endoscopy if needed to lead to a diagnosis
I prefer starting my patients on proton pump inhibitors which helps in relieving symptoms
you can disscuss these modalities with your physician
