chest pains


by: kr on Fri, Oct 12 2007

I get frequent chest pains that i went to my doctors about and they still dont know what is wrong with me. I am 20 years old and i should be out having fun with my friends and i cant because half the time i am in too much pain to want to go anywhere. My doctor didnt know, so i got a second opinion today and she also said that she didnt know. They arent running any tests though, which is aggrivating me a bit.

I have asked them if this is something i should be taking x-rays or an MRI for, but they just keep saying some people just get them from stress. Im not stressed though, except i am a bit stressed now because no one can figure out what is wrong with me!!!

Every person can tell when something is wrong with their body and it is good to follow your instincts, that is why i am changing my doctor. If they cant help me than i will find someone who can. Chest pains are Not normal and i should be figuring out what is wrong instead of masking the problem with pills.

I just wanted to let someone know about what problems i am having with my chest pains. (It feels like an extremely sharp pain under my left breast, and is severe.) But if anyone else has this problem let me know! Thanks
