Possibly heartburn: You have to be more specific as to when you experience the pains, but heartburn (i.e. Reflux) is possible.

Accepted Answer

These : These are serious symptoms. It sounds like you are dealing with angina, which is a type of chest pain that is caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. Angina is a symptom of coronary artery disease, and is very dangerous if left untreated. You need to see your doctor right away if you have not done so already. If the episodes are persisting and increasing in intensity you should present to your local er.
All the best.

Question 8

how come chest pains in center of chest?

Accepted Answer

Nerve pathways: Even though the heart is anatomically to the left-centre of the chest, the pathways of the nerves that bring sensation from the heart lead one to perceive chest pain as right in the center, under the breastbone. For similar reason, some people experience heart pain in the jaw and/or left arm.

Accepted Answer

: More description of your symptoms is going to be needed. I feel that your symptoms warrant an evaluation by an MD along with appropriate testing.  Awakening with chest pain requires diagnostic clarity.  Possible causes.include cardiac,esophageal, rib cage or.pulmonary issues.

Musculoskeletal : You have a chest wall pain - maybe inflammation of muscles or cartilage in the area. Not worrisome. Ask your doc about taking some anti inflammatories ( like ibuprofen) to see if it helps.
