Check it out asap: While this could be dyspepsia or reflux you should be sure to have it checked out with your doctor soon to rule out other causes. With your smoking and family history one should be concerned about cardiac problems and your heart along with surrounding vessels should be evaluated ( EKG and perhaps CT chest to rule out aortic dissection).
