Sharp Pains In Chest Area Posted: 06-30-05 21:59pm
I don't know where to turn as i'm
currently out of health insurance,
recently graduated college and looking for
a job with coverage. I have been a bit of
a hypochrondiac lately, probably because I
don't have insurance and everything seems
so severe when its even the slightest
pain.
Lately, i've been getting these sharp,
sometimes shooting pains in my chest area
but not really around the heart, only
occasionally. The pain sometimes extends
down to the top of my stomach. When I get
distracted and don't think about it, the
pain seems to not bother me, if it is
there at all, but then I remember it and
it comes back almost instantly. It's not
that bad, but it worries me. I'm only 23
and have never had any health problems
before. Does anyone know what this might
be? I have been researching it all day
and nothing has come up that sounds like
it fits what i'm feeling. Please help if
you can, thanks.
