GERD: Two potential causes come to mind. The first is GERD - gastroesophageal reflux. You can experience chest pressure (spasm / irritation of the esophagus) that mimics cardiac chest pain. Alternatively, you could have a lung condition such as asthma or COPD which is causing the pressure. Smoking worsens both GERD and asthma/COPD so if you are ready to quit, that might be a good first step!
