What it could be is your ribs out of alignment.  A chiropractor can fix this.  He or she will just give you a big bear hug and all the ribs pop back into alignment.  A chiropractor knows how to do this, so don't try this at home or they could pop out further.  It does not hurt.  Also, the migraines could be coming from your neck out of alignment.

I'm not sure what this could be, but it doesn't sound like heart problems. The pain you are discribing is the type of pain related to heart disease either. You would have to have significant heart disease in order to have chest pains due to heart disease and that would be hard for a doctor, or even your parents, to miss.
