Experiencing episodes of pressing up & down feeling centre of chest, lasts 1-30 secs. makes me cough sometimes and feel faint.not anxious in episodes?

Be checked by doc: What you describe could well be due to premature ventricular or atrial heart beats followed by a compensatory pause, as the cause of the need to cough. These are usually benign happenings but you should be checked by your doc to make sure.
