As you maybe aware, Pain under your ribs can have many different causes: Equally, pain in one area can have it's cause in another: Just based on how the nurves of the body work. First and foremost, you have to ask yourself if you may of had an injury that you may not be aware of.. strain, a knock or if you suffer with any digestion problems. Sometimes pain in the upper rib cage can actually be cause by acid reflux: If you press just underneath your sternum do you feel pain.. or a full feeling? Equally: chest pains can be something more serious, as with anything in that area a visit to your doctor is the order of the day: especially if you have other pain with it, such as your left arm.. shoulder.. pins and needles. As a quick breakdown of possible problems: see the list below, which in no way is comprehensive.

Non-ischemic CV:

Pericarditis

Pulmonary:

Pneumothorax

Pleuritis

Pulmonary Embolus

Gastro:

Esophageal spasm, reflux, esophagitis

Biliary colic, cholecystitis, cholangitis

Peptic ulcer

Pancreatitis

Chest Wall:

Costochondritis

Fibrositis

Sternoclavicular arthiritis

Zoster ----

If the heart workup is normal, and food exacerbates the pain, perhaps an upper endoscopy would be in order to evaluate for gastritis, esophagitis, or peptic ulcer.

If this has already been done, perhaps further diagnostic tests to evaluate the causes above should be discussed.

I strongly suggest following up with your personal physician.
