Chest Pain

[lizmarshall]

What does everyones chest pain feel like, mine can be sharp or lingering and sometim feels like some is sitting on my chest. My chest has been bothering me for about 2 weeks now. When i cough i get a bubbly feeling at the bottom of my right ribs and i have been wheezing even though the doc says my chest is clear, i just want to know if this normal?

Cheers

When I first had panick and anxiety my heart and chest used to feel as if it had an iron claw round it. It was so painfull that I convinced my doctor to send me for breathing tests and x-rays, nothing was ever found tho.
I can remember my breath used to be very shallow, I could never get a full lung full. My whole chest area used to canstantly ache.
That was a long time ago now tho, I worked with my counsellor on breathing techniques and that really relieved the pains.
I hope you dont have these feelings for to long

Not to worry. I get these a lot and from what I hear they are quite common. Sometimes I have sharp stabbing pains and sometimes it feels like there's a huge weight on my chest and I can't get enough air in. Sometimes it seems to last for weeks at a time but always eventually passes. Just try to exercise regularly even when it doesn't seem to help. (Unless you're inured.) Good luck!

Hi Liz,

My chest pains feel like someone has left a boulder and forgotten to lift it off again. Hope this helps ease your mindx

Take Care
