This has been happening to me quite often too.
I went to the doctor and he said there was nothing to worry about, but I don't believe him.
I'm not a very medically inclined person, so I can't give you much advice other than 'hang in there.'.
Perhaps change your diet around a bit, cut out some of the crazy unhealthy stuff. I did that and it subsided for a bit, gave me time to look around for more advice and stuff, but I'm still clueless.

You will be surprised to know the bacteria responsible for GERD, heart burn, acid reflux etc called Helocobacter Pylori or H pylori can cause hives (the extreme heat sensation in your case). Antibiotics given to clear up the bacteria also take care of the hives. A number of times autoimmune components are associated like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Hence you must get your thyroid function too tested along with the thyroid antibody test. Hashimotos thyroiditis is associated with skin issues such as dryness, itching and rash and also with extreme fatigue and body ache.
The other possibility is chronic fatigue syndrome.
Keep a stress diary of all food items that trigger this pain. Maybe you have food intolerance to something like gluten.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!

Burning sensation in the chest is usually acidity or heart burn and should be ruled out first. Another possibility is hiatal hernia, where a portion of stomach herniates into the chest cavity through the diaphragm. Any antacid will ease the symptoms. Omeprazole is a good drug to combat this. Along with it you can try over the counter antacids. However I would recommend you see a doctor and take medication under a doctor’s supervision. Avoid heavy meals. Avoid too much of caffeine, tea, fried food and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic fuzzy ones. Avoid heavy exercises within 4 hours of a heavy meal. Raise the head end of the bed by pillows to 30 degrees. Go to bed at least 2 hours after food.
You can try this and see if these tips help.
Generalized feeling of a burning sensation can be due to dry skin, hyperthyroid states, liver or gall bladder dysfunction, peripheral neuropathies or decreased sweating as in Sjogren’s syndrome. This would need a comprehensive investigation.
