A member asked:
Flitting, mild pain right around my heart area, today only. it hasn't been confirmed but i may have acid reflux. i'm very active and fit. ideas?

Doesnt sound serious: At your age if you're fit and healthy it is likely nothing serious. The most common problem fitting your description is precordial catch syndrome (google it and see if it fits!). Heartburn less likely but possible. Since it only happened today it most likely will go away on its own. Keep an eye out for patterns.
