That's one of the bad things between heart problem and upper chest pain due to GERD or Refulx etc.. Is they can mimic each other. If you are not 100% sure, it is ALWAYS advisable to be seen. At this point since it's been happening a couple of days, it may be GERD, Reflux, Hiatal Hernia even. If it were heart related, I would assume you would have had some other symptoms by now. But since every one is different, it is still nothing I would rule out as of yet. If you feel it's an emergency, all I can say is be seen tonight in the ER to confirm it's not heart related. They have other medications that can also help if this is related to GERD, etc.. that OTC may not help you. If not, all you can do is keep trying to treat this at home and then follow up with your doctor tomorrow, which you may need to see a Gastroenterologist to confirm exactly what is going on if this is not related to your heart..

So you know your body better than anyone.. You will have to make this judgment call. But since it's been going on a couple of days, you may want to just be seen to get some relief.
