Pain: If this comes on after eating or drinking I would be suspicious for some type of reflux or esophageal problem.

I have chest pains and pain in my left arm and back till i drink alcohol.... Why does the drinking make me feel normal? I also feel light headed

Left chest pain, triggered when drinking (or not). Last only about a few secs, but occur a few times a day. No pain when moving left arm or breathing.

When i drink alcohol the whole left side of my chest hurst and also my arm aches real bad. It just started happening within the last few months.

For around 4 days, but my left chest, left foot, and left arm have been weak or tight or numb, and sometimes I get lightheaded, and I find myself burping 3-4 times when drinking anything like water. My average heart beat is 110 bpm and it beats hard.

I been getting a pain in my left side about 8in below my armpit. It gets worse when I drink something cold like a brain freeze but in chest. Any ideas?
