What about the possibility of otereoperorsis? I also have the same problem, but it comes and goes. I am going to consume more calcium and less of the bad food and see if that helps at all
Hi I have the same thing and of course then had panic thinking heart issues, breast cancer and all other things.
But it ended up being a pinched nerve in my shoulder/neck.. if you press down on the top of your shoulder close to your neck and it creates the shooting pains, then you most likely have the same thing.
It took a long time to diganose it, but that is what it was/is.
I hope you feel better soon
I have had this same type of pain for 5 years now. Started in my left side, and about a year later moved to my right. The pain is very sharp, and got more and more frequent, until I basically became disabled. It shoots, and is worst in my left side: mostly chest & upper armpit/shoulder area.....but my breasts are also very tender. I am also achy, and my hips get so that I can barely walk--- this actually developed later as well. I have been diagnosed with Lyme Disease, Fibromyalgia, and Polymyalgia Rhuematica. But I know I don't have any of these. But they've never been able to figure it out. Luckily, I had a cortizone shot 2 years ago, that saved my life because the pain was about 75% less and became maneagable. But it is now coming back, and I only write here because this is the most similar that I have ever seen anyone have as close to my same symptoms. It does scare me when it really feels strong in my heart region. I really do believe that it is hormone related and it is affecting my heart. My period gets wierd, I sweat a ton, and my breasts are tender. What type of doctor do I need to see?
I have been having the same symptoms for about 2 weeks. I recently had a lump removed from my right breast and was not cancer. I think it might be hormones. I have been getting it on and off pain in breast, but always worse in left. I don't think it's my heart. Should I see a doctor
I am a 48 year old female with 3 children (ages 28, 24 and 20). I have never had any surgeries or hospitalizations except for childbirth related. I had a car accident 6 years ago resulting in bruised ribs, 2 herniated disks in lower left back, 2 herniated disks in lower... [More] neck where neck and spine connect on left side and sore left hip. I was treated for a few months to resolve the issues. At the beginning of the year I began to have pain in my left underarm and under my left breast, Since then I have had quite a few incidents but more recently I have had chest discomfort and tightness in the heart area and dizziness. Last week my husband had a stress test and they discovered 2 arteries were blocked and caused discomfort for him during exercise. During his cardiac catheterization 2 stents were put in his heart. My husband is only 49 and likes to run, so they attributed it to genetics, while I am not physically active. Because of my husband's problem I contacted my mother who told me that my father had cardiomyopathy, an enlarged heart, cardiac heart failure, high bp and high cholesterol. My mother has had 2 silent heart attacks found by scar tissue and blood clots in right leg so a filter was inserted in groin area. I am concerned about my health now so I saw a doctor yesterday. Because most of the episodes involved my breast and underarm she ordered a mammogram but with my urging I had an EKG with normal results (not reassuring as my husband's EKG was normal), she also suspects because of the herniated disks in my neck may be sending pain to my chest (I have no pain in my neck). I am worried that it might be my heart. I am still having mild pain (1-2) in my left underarm and chest. Should I be worried or push for further heart testing or other tests? If so what tests?
Hi! I was on a car crash about a year ago. At the point of the crash, I felt like something shook my left breast. That started the pain in my left breast. Every time I feel the pain in my left breast, there's also a corresponding pain in my back and left shoulder. Sometimes the pain is mild. Other times it is so severe. Right now, the pain is radiating to my left arm. My left breast nipple and the skin in my left arm are itchy.
