Thank you "worn out pump" for your comments, they help provide insight into what "cardiac" pain can feel like. I am glad "Warren S" found them useful

I've had 2 MIs and it felt like an elephant was standing on my chest.  When I have sharp pains it is usually indigestion or tension.  When I have a heavy feel to my chest and pressure, it is angina.

Best,
