Hello,
This can be due to ischemic heart disease in which pain radiates to neck, shoulder, arms and fingers and chest discomfort is as usual finding.
It can be also from anemia from nutrient deficiency. I suggest you visit to the emergency room. you may need blood tests, radiography and ECG an accordingly you would be treated.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
