Answer
Hello Grace and thanks for writing,

You really must go see your doctor and get examined  you should never ignore heart pains, especially when they are accompanied by difficulty breathing.

There are many things it could be and I can't begin to guess over the Internet, but I can tell you that you need a qualified physician to examine you and run a few tests so s/he can diagnose it and arrange the appropriate treatments if necessary.

Wishing you all the best,
