Answer 1

Sounds like you're going to be another statistic in the category of young people dying from developing enlarged hearts. This is not normal at any age nevermind 14 freaking years old.

Answer 2

I'd get checked by your family doc. Heart/chest pain isn't something to play with or delay having checked especially if there are family related issues. Possible issues could be stomach acid from eating prior to going to bed(?), anxiety, growing pains, the list can go on but best to get checked.

Answer 3

It' could be gas or heart burn sometimes it feels like it's in your chest. But you should tell your parents and go see a doctor and get it checked out.
