Chest pain help.?

[Althea Muirin]

My chest began hurting last night. It remains sore but it weaves between intense and mild. It mainly occurs when I swallow but not when I breathe. In fact breathing seems to occasionally help. The pain is so bad that I get past the point of tears.I also sometimes have chills. I've tried Acetametophin and Ibupruofin and they only work for ~30 minutes. I can't find anything with those symptoms. Can anyone help me?

Go to see a doctor/hospital. Don't wait around for an answer

Well, from the symptoms you are listing it does not sound like it is cardiac related. you might have a hernia in your esophagus. The only way to rule that out is to get scoped by a G.I. Doctor, don't worry it is not fatal, you will be ok.
