Hi again Aimee, yes it sounds exactly the same as I get, I wasn't going to mention the intense pain round the heart area in case you didn't get it and Iworried you, but yes, when it first hit me last week, I was just bending over the wash basin in the bathroom and it struck like a bolt of lightning. I put my hands on my waistline (what there is left of it ha ha), and twist my body left and right, and although it really hurts, it shifts a lot of wind. As I said in my last message, I have still got the wind, but it is not as bad as it was last week. I do hope that this allays your fears of anything worse. I don't bother about going to the doctor because I know what it is and have had it so long I just put up with it. Hope you feel be4tter soon.
