Hello. : Hello. I don't know the cause of your pain. I probably would have called 911 because this could have been a cardiac event. Symptoms of a heart attack can include: chest pain; chest tightness or squeezing; shortness of breath, increased sweating pain or numbness radiating down the arm (more often left than right) and nausea. Some people dismiss the pain thinking it is indigestion. There can be pain in the top midline of the abdomen, as well as vomiting. Pain may not present in the chest but instead can be felt in the upper back, head, jaw or in the teeth. There may be a generalized feeling of unwellness and fatigue. One fourth of people have heart attacks without chest pain.

See a doctor: Without knowing more about your health condition there is no way to know what caused your symptoms. Since it is possible that it may have been an issue with your heart you should have a good evaluation by a doctor to rule out anything serious.
