Q: chest discomfort, tingling in jaw with fatigue and nausea

Hi,

I was taken from my doctor's office to the ER for discomfort in my chest, tingling and numbness in my left jaw, severe fatigue and nausea. I am on Maxzide for blood pressure, Humira injection weekly for RA and Plaquenil for RA.

When I got to the ER they did an EKG that was they said perfect. They then took my bloodwork, sent me for CT head scan, and chest x-ray. Chest x-ray was good, CT was good, My total CK-MB was 309 and my CK 8.8. Double the range. My Tropolin was <0.2. They released me in 2 hours and told me it was RA....does this sound normal.. I am still having all the same symptoms and it's all i can do to get up and move around??

Thank you!

Spasams
Hi i have been getting these spasams that start in my jaw line, move to my head and then straight to my chest. When it gets to my chest, i find it very hard to breath properly, its almost like my chest is being crushed, and constantly spasams. It comes on totally out of the blue, and i can go from 1 week to 3 weeks in between having one. On one occasion it woke me up in the night. What could this be please.
