As from my previous posts I've had chest pain for nearly 2 years in different strains.
I've had multiple tests but all have proved normal, so I've just been told to ignore it and get on with it. I've recently noticed that I'm getting pain in my chest that is actually making me feel nauseated, last night I had to lay down on the sofa because the pain and aching was making me feel physically sick. ( I don't know if my anxiety about the pain exaggerated that feeling)
The thing I'm concerned about is that I have started to notice the skin on my chest becomes very itchy when the pain comes, and last night I scratched it so much that it became a raised lump and now I have a horrible sore red rash this morning. This has happened a few times, and after googling (I know I shouldn't but sometimes can't control myself) I saw that chest pain and itchy skin can be a form of cancer, so now I'm in panic overdrive.
Just to add as well, the pain usually gets worse as the day progresses, and often I get a feeling of someone applying immense pressure to my collar bones/like there's a lead weight pulling my chest down. Hard to describe but hopefully that gives a vague idea. I get periods of time where I get little or no chest pain at all, and at other times it is very persistent, like at the moment.
Can anyone shed any light on this at all?
Thanks in advance.
