Angie,
To be honest, what you are describing sounds like a heart arrhythmia to me. Anytime the heart goes into a funky rhythm, it will manifest in feeling "strangeness" in your chest and maybe your throat too, and a feeling you're going to pass out. It could be something as common as PVC's or premature ventricular contractions that could be caused by a low magnesium level as is often seen in those taking cyclosporin or tacrolimus.
I wouldn't wait to see your doctor about this and 24 hour holter monitoring would be entirely appropriate here, assuming you're still experiencing this problem.
Take care,
