I've been dealing with this chest pain for quite a while now and it's really starting to worry me. It feels like something in the middle of my chest is hurting a lot. Plus, I sometimes vomit, which burns my chest and inner neck really bad. Mornings are especially tough because I often feel like I'm going to throw up. I'm just trying to figure out why I'm experiencing this and what I can do to make it better. Any insights would be greatly appreciated because this is becoming really stressful.
