I am getting chest pain while on Keflex I feel that is related, but I don't see it listed as a side effect of the medication

Hello, DW! How are you?

No, that is not a normal side effect to this antibiotic, those would normally be things like nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash, stomach pain and diarrhea.

Any time you experience chest pain, you should have it checked out, because there is a risk of being something serious.

However, there is a chance that it has just caused you to produce more stomach acid than usual and the chest pain might be due to GERD.

Have you ever suffered from heartburn, acid reflux, gastritis or an ulcer?
