Hi Burberry,

If you need reassurance,pop into your local Chemist and speak to him/her-not the counter staff,though.Might save a trip to the GP.
Best wishes,

Hiya hun.

Ok i recon you either pulled a muscle/or trapped a wee nerve, both would cause this type of pain, coupled with your anxiety, your doing a me here and blowing it all out of proportion. if the NHS lady said it's not heart related sweety, then guarunteed it won't be. Them folks are brilliant and would have had to in at the drop of a hat even if they had the slightest doubt!! PROMISE!!! So rest that arm and rest your mind, your gonna be just fine.

Love Lisa
