Pain in Chest

[Wilbur40]

Seems that many of us all have one thing in common, your chest hurts.  Makes you feel like ****, makes you feel overwhelmed and noone will listen to you.  Thats true with me.  I don't know how many heart tests, exams I've had done, and everything came out negative.....nothing is wrong with you, the Doctors will say.  I'm tired of not sleeping, because of the pain from my left side of upper chest and the nerves radiate to my left hand.  Anyhow, one doctor did figure one thing out.  I'm really low in Vitamin D....and I have fibromyalgia (because nothing is wrong)....

My suggestion.  Go talk to your doctors about vitamin deficiency.  I have no gall bladder.  No reflux medicine works.  I have asthma, but only seasona..  My chest hurts even when I touch it.  So, the all of a sudden pain, is not the heart, but only mass of something that noone can figure out.  Interesting..uh?  Chondocostaritis, have that one too.lol..

All I know, is I've had this for ten years and it's only getting worse...

Did you ever get a diagnosis for your condition Wilbur40? I seem to be having the same problems and same excuses for my conditions but im just not buying it. They ruled out the heart so what could it be. I cant' even lean on my left side for long start to feel the pressure . My pain seems to radiate right at the bottom of my rib and next to my stomach as if my stomach is enlarge and is pressing agains my ribs making it hurt, but it could be the other way around. I wish there was a mystery diagnosis site for people who experience unusual symptom.

Hi there,

I can hear and understand that you are very frustrated and the "not knowing what is wrong" part can make one feel depressed and anxious at times.

Typical heart pains, funny enough, will not be at the left side of your chest.  It sounds like you have a nerve that is stuck somewhere and have you ever considered seing a Neurologist for an MRI?  I am talking out of experience... I have heart problems (valve and arteries) and get these sharp pains just above my left breast about... had all kinds of tests done and the MRI revealed all these disks in my neck and back that are degenerating and stuck.  I have been on meds for that for a few months and the pains are gone!

Hope this helps.
