Maybe, anxiety too: Gerd can cause a symptom of pain (often burning or sharp) that can be substernal or felt in the upper abdomen/back. Nausea and sweating can be associated also. Stress and anxiety can trigger discomfort too particularly if shallow breathing and hyperventilation arise. Sounds you need to talk to your octor bout all your symptoms as well as to rule out heart issues. More than 1 problem is possible.
