Although it is: unlikely that a 24 year old woman would have significant cardiac disease, your symptoms are very worrisome. You should seek the evaluation of a health care professional who can order the appropriate tests to determine if this is something significant or not. Don't delay.

Chest pain: Requires immediate evaluation. May be simple, like a pulled muscle, but may also be quite severe, like a heart attack. Don't put this off. IMMEDIATELY be seen by your GP, Urgent Care, or ER. Don't drive yourself. Have someone transport you. GO NOW.

Call 911!!!: Regardless, the cause, chest pain that radiates into your shoulder, shortness of breath and jaw pains always a red flag and visit to the ER is warranted. Do not drive, Call 911.
