Upper left chest pain, stinging every now and then, it is very random, sometimes during the day, and sometimes when i lay in bed, its from 1-3 stings?

Unlikely heart: Given your age and the description of the symptoms it is very unlikely related to your heart. Much more likely either musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, and less likely pulmonary in nature if it is worse when you take a deep breath.
