Chest Pain

Hello I am also 37 and I am over weight, I weigh a little over 300 pounds. I also have discomfort with middle of chest. Ex. when I sleep on stomach and if I push myself up, middle of my chest is bothersome. The discomfort lasts about 15 seconds and goes away, it always happens when i lean frontwards or when I bend over to pick up something and while Im in motion to stand upright is when this discomfort happens. Any possible reasons why?

Hello,
       Appears like a case of sliding hiatal hernia. Other reasons could be vascular defects in the chest area or due to straining of the heart muscles in  the body positions described. In any case, as advised, first consult a cardiologist and rule out any problem with the circulatory system.
