Q: Chest pain when waking up

Hello Doctor

I have been having this stomach pain when I wake up for couple of months now. It happens like 3-4 times a month. The pain is not a normal stomach pain. It kind of feels different. Like it feels like a muscle spasm and it extends from my stomach to my chest (heart) and even my back. I have been to my doctor and he prescribed me Rabeprazole 20mg. I have been taking them for 3 weeks now but again I woke up today with the same pain. The pain goes away after 15-30min when I walk around or get out of the bed. Could it be the way I sleep or something else? The weird thing is it doesn’t happen everyday and when it does happen its always in the morning as soon as I wake up. I have done a full blood test, an X-ray from my chest, urine test, 3-4 different heart tests and they call came back normal.

By the way I mentioned the pain kind of extends to my heart. The pain is hard to describe. It doesn’t feel like a pain. Its like burning kind of feeling you get in when your hungry but in your heart. I know im not making sense but its hard for me to explain this. I also get nausea sometimes after i eat or randomly during the day. Sometimes when i wake up in the morning and feel the pain im talking about i feel nausea too but it doesn't happen always.
