Certainly get your heart checked - I did and everything was fine. There are multiple reasons for chest pains - mine is muscle related. The actual name escapes me - I remember them saying it was more common with pregnant women (if that helps...). Other factors - anemia, digestive problems or gas. I also have a thyroid problem and chest pains and thyroid problems are sometimes linked. Mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2003 Report Share Posted April 20, 2003 Oh, Mary, thanks so much. I reallydidnt think it was a heart problem, as its been going on for a few weeks and only uncomfortable not painful. I'v e read recently that it is also a symptom of candida. It has cleared up in the last few days. Im having one of those million symptom menopauses i guess. Thanks again... s lil2du [lil2du] Saturday, April 19, 2003 11:33 AM Gettingwell Re: chest symptom Gettingwell , " ragadugu " <scarlett@c...> wrote: > Hi everybody...anyone know about these symptoms: heavy feeling in > chest while lying down,centered in breastbone and radiating out, > mostly to left, pressure, occaisional small stitchlike pains under > breastbone around breasts,mostly to the left.
