The dr said I have strained muscles in my chest.

I have a deep aching on both sides of my chest just down from my armpits, kinda in line with my nipples.

However every so often I get this squeezing feeling and a real sickly feeling.

I'm sure muscle strain would not feel like this and am worried about various digestive cancers, pancreas, liver etc etc. Especially as I have had a few 'tummy bugs' in this year.

Of course my heart fear is still rife too.

Abyone have any experience?

I had muscle pain in my upper chest when I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 20-25 yrs ago. Worth checking out.

Muscle pain is rarely anything to do with cancer.

Thanks for your reply.

The muscle strain is from chronic tension but the squeezing and sick feeling I can't relate to muscle pain?

Is it related to the anxiety? I get a sicky feeling and tight chest when my anxiety is laying up. Typically right before the panic sets in...

Sounds like muscle strain and anxiety to me! :)

I just don't know. I'm so fed up I'm going to see the emergency dr tonight as I can't go another night fretting about it being my heart.

It's like a wave of squeezing heat which makes me feel sick.
