Heaviness/ pain in chest- back

I am currently troubled with a heaviness in the center of my chest that radiates to the same point in my back. This heaviness is causing me to have difficulty when breathing and heart rate increase. The heaviness/ pain at its peak i would register it at a 7 but after some rubbing on the back area and chest area and somewhere about 20-30 min later the pain subsidies. I am having this issue at least 3- 4 X's daily. I am 30 yrs old and a female i currently stay as active as possible.. If you could please help with this matter it would be greatly appreciated..

Pain that radiates is something that a doctor really needs to know about.

We aren't doctors here so we can't diagnose you.  I would suggest going and seeing your doctor.  You could have something wrong with some muscles in your chest, in your stomach or something else but it sounds like the pain is strong enough you should seek out medical advice.  The good news is serious chest pain likely wouldn't come and go but don't take this lightly, just go see your doctor.  Take care and keep us posted on how you are doing.
