Chest Pains and Discomfort

by Mikey24, Nov 27, 2007 02:25PM
Hi, I am 24 yrs old, Male 5'7 188pounds high cholesterol, blood pressure from 124/74 to 135/85, Im having pain under my left chest (breast) bone that some times hurt on my back under the shoulder blades which come and go within less then a minute, also when I start to lay down or sit my heart feels like its pounding (squizzing) discomforting" I checked my of pulses during these times and its always around 80 to 88 beat per minute, I can just feel it throbbing still. I had an EKG came out normal, Blood chemistry normal, Chest X-ray Normal, Stress test my cardiologist said I was okay.

What may be the reason for me having these pain under my chest bone and back?
Why does my heart feel so discomforting when I just start to lay down or sit?
Do you think that this could be a serious heart condition?
what do you think may be wrong with me? what step should I now take?
If anyone can anwer me back I would deeply appreciated.
