Please help
This is not psychiatric in nature
I am 30 years old
I feel as though I am going to die if someone doesn't help me, I do not say that lightly, I do not exaggerate this is really that bad.  Please can you help

3 years ago I started having severe headaches every day, refractory to treatment. Since then I had mild chronic gastritis and other areas of inflammation, refractory to treatment. I was miserable but knew I would live.

But starting 4 months ago I became chronically lightheaded. At the same time my chest wall started feeling heavy all the time. Laying in different postions causes pressure in different areas of my chest. For example laying on my left side causes throbbing pressure to build up under my left arm on the side. Or another position may cause pressure on the front under the left shoulder.  Or I may just have heavy pressure and a forceful heatbeat.
I have episodes of lightheadedness so severe that I because virtually disorient and very weak. My glucose is normal during this. My chest, my heart feel liek they're going to just give out, I get a sinking hollow feeling inside. This is very intense and very real. Sometimes my BP gets very elevated during this. Almost all the time I'm lightheaded. Eating a meal sometimes helps some but again glucose normal. My chest just never feels right, like something is crowding my heart and vessels maybe. Every day is slightly worse. I am not a depressive person, before all this I was outgoing and fun loving. I have plenty of money and friends,I'm engaged too.. I am otherwise happy..beleive that!  
I AM GOING TO DIE IF SOMEBODY DOESN'T HELP ME  PLEASE CAN YOU OFFER ANY DIRECTION

It is not clear what your problem is but you should be carefully evaluated to get to the bottom of your symptoms.  You should see a cardiologist.

I had a normal echo, chest xray, and labs

Have you considered GERD?  It can feel like intense pressure, and the change in positions suggest it to me.  It CAN be the only symptom of it.  Ask your doctor if you could try some meds for GERD.  I don't know about the lightheadedness or headache.  Have you seen a neuro?  Do you take any meds or OTC supplements of any kind?  Have you been tested for pheochromocytoma?  I wish I could think of something to help, but I'm sure the doctor will have some good ideas.

Sounds like adrenal problems, which can cause low thyriod function.  Need to find an open minded doctor would knows about adrenal insufficency or fatigue.  
Check out  adrenalfatigue.org where you can start self supplementing to build your health back.
There are many people who suffer from this, take heart it can be a long journey.
