I am having Chest Pain

I am 17 year old. My father had recently a bypass operation.
On the day of his bypass, i started feeling chest pain. It could be due to stress.
It's been a month i am feeling chest pain.
The pain appears only 1-2 times a day during excercise or lying. Sometimes i feel it on my right side of chest and some times on left side.
But i feel it sharp ob right side. I feel pain more on right side. Sometimes i go to bed, i started feeling pain on left or right side.
One more thing to tell that i also feel my heartbeat all over my body. Every time i lay down or sit quite, i feel my pulse on my parts of body.
I jsed to eat butter with bread day and night but stopped it.
I am really worried about my pain.
My urine color was also a little dark, not brown but a little dark than yellow.
I have no family history of heart problems. My father had his surgery at age of 54 so i think i am not related to it. Somtimes i feel pain during breathing. Today i was playing cricket when i suddenly felt pain near heart at left. It was a sharp pain and i could not feel it for some seconds and i stopped playing. I was dehydrated at that time.

I am sorry to hear about your father and about your symptoms.  This sounds like it is a very stressful time for you.  It is not uncommon to have chest pain during stressful times.  That said, you should talk with your doctor to look for the cause of your chest discomfort.  Even at your age, there are many things that can cause pathologic chest pain.  Nonetheless, even if your pain is related to stress and not to organic disease, your doctor can help you develop some coping strategies to alleviate your stress in what is certainly a very difficult time for you and your family.

The stress and such may be making you dehydrated and anxious. Dehydration can make your urine darker. If you are concerned please see a physician for a work up
