Left pectoral pain!

Hi everyone thought coming on here could shed some light on my issue, since doctors can't figure it out. For about 5 months now been dealing with this pain in my left pectoral muscle as well right underneath it which leads to the arm pit and shoulder blade area. It comes goes for like a couple days to a week. It would switch from the left pec to the stomach and just below both pecs in the center. I've done EKGS, blood work, 2 breathing tests, a stress test on my heart , UGI and a ultra sound and they all came back fine. The only thing is the ultra sound showed low amounts of fatty deposits in my liver but I don't believe that could be the issue. I've been on different kinds of anti-inflammatories and stomach acid fighters but seems like they help for a time then the pain comes right back. Super tired of going into doctors and them telling me absolutely nothing. Any ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

As odd as this will sound, I suggest you see a chiropractor. You could very well have some misplaced vertebrae and this is causing the pains you are feeling, they will not get better, if this is the case, until they are adjusted properly.

No that sounds like a great idea, actually have a appointment for one this weekend so hopefully it works because I have never had it done before.

Stomach acid blockers lower vitamin D3 in the body. Can check levels with blood work. Low Vitamin D and magnesium may be contributing pain factors.

Awesome thanks for the idea. I'll check in on that pretty quick here since I have to do blood work soon.
