upper chest tension/pain? help!

[Rachel]

okay. this afternoon while reading i realized that my upper chest was bothering me... a lot! i have a tight/pain-thing going on in the middle of my upper chest directly above the area between my breasts. it really is not more to one side or the other, but rather directly in the middle (maybe a touch to my right). it feels more difficult to breathe now. i am concerned.
the last time i rolled was 8 days ago and the other only substance i consumed was a cap of G. before then-- it had been a while since i did anything. any ideas?
thanks in advance... PLUR, a worried Rachel

Its probably just a muscle spasm or heartburn or something. But if it still hurts, or it comes and goes for a while you probably should see a physician. Go ahead and take an asprin. If it is angina, the asprin will thin your blood and let your heart work a little easier. Hope your feeling better.

Sorry you're not feeling well. I just got over the same thing. I'm not a doctor but...You may have bronchitis so you may want to see a doctor - you don't want to end up with pneumonia. Hope you feel better, and REST! When you burn the candle at both ends you weaken your immune system and make yourself more susceptable these things.
Of course, it IS saturday nite... maybe just take 2 pills and call a doc in the morning!

RACHEL!
I've had this too...is it kind of like a squeezing feeling? Does it last for long or just a few seconds? Mine last for a couple of seconds and happen about 3 or 4 times in succession. I never usually worry about that kind of thing (smart eh? i never listen to my body), I reckon it could just be some kind of hearburn...maybe?
Anyway I hope it gets better, and if you see a doctor and find out that it's something more serious...drop me line.
cheers
