Chest Pain for 1 month

Posted by amm97 @amm97, Dec 18, 2019

Hi! My name is Alex and I'm a 22 year old female. I have been having left sided chest pain for about a month. The pain is on my left side and radiates under my left breast. It is a sharp, stabbing pain. It happens all the time. With the chest pain I've also have had high heart (no less 100 and up to 150 at rest) and also high blood pressure. The pain is usually between 6-8 out of 10. I also have no history of anixety.
I've had EKGs done, a stress test, chest xray, upper gi scope, and labs. Everything so far has came back normal. My doctor has me scheduled for a kidney ultrasound next week.

Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi Art, I have had pain like that. My physical therapist evaluated me, and concluded that it was actually from poor posture - if I sit on our comfy reclining leather sofa very much, the pain comes. Also if I have poor posture at the computer it's there.
If I have good posture, sit upright & stretch regularly it mostly stays away. (PS I have fibromyalgia & severe arthritis)
Just something to consider. OUr recliners are not always the best place to be.

Ok! my wife has
the occurring pain while in her recliner. I'll pass on to her about your situation. From what you've said, I believe it will help her. She just gets distressed when it happens and unable to explain it. Thank you. Art

It may sound far-fetched; however, my wife had and has pain that comes and goes on her lower left side, not deep pain just lower rib area. She has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia in the past. Nothing helps discomfort, it just comes and goes.

I’ve been having upper left to right side abdominal pain. I’ve seen my doctor multiple times and so far we haven’t found an answer. It doesn’t hurt when I breathe

@amm97 Glad there's no pain when you breath. Any issues with your stomach?

We haven’t found any yet. I’ve had CT, upper GI scope, colonoscopy, Duplex ultrasound which found possible stenosis of the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries.
