Hi,
I don’t know if I’m even posting in the right category… For several weeks I’ve had varying levels of pain in mainly the right side of my chest. One time in particular I was lying on my bed and it was such an awful feeling I found myself gasping, with my hand clamped over my chest, pushing my spine into the bed not quite knowing what to do with myself because the feeling wouldn’t go away.
Since then it has been on and off, occasionally it feels like there is a rope around my chest, but it’s not as if I can’t breathe, it’s just tiring to get enough air. Also had fever on and off, but only low-grade, nothing above 38.
The past few days the pain has been constant, it’s in the right edge of my breast below my armpit, also in my right arm. I’ve had a dry, non-productive cough on and off for a week, and also in the past few days the feeling there is some kind of heavy creature sitting on my sternum has increased.
This is quite annoying, and I feel a bit silly complaining about it again to my doctor, as I had a chest x-ray and blood test a couple of weeks ago and they were clear!
The pain isn’t agonising, and it’s not as though it’s on the left side or I’m suffocating, and it is only on and off, – but it’s just an awful feeling.
Anybody have any ideas? I don’t have asthma. Don’t smoke. It isn’t costochondritis, I had that years ago, this is nothing like. Anything else, pleurisy, bronchitis etc would have shown up on the x-ray, plus I don’t have flu or cold symptoms. No trauma etc. No diabetes. Not overweight.
Please help if you can, I’d really appreciate it. May I also ask that you don’t simply say “see a doctor” – I saw one. I will go back.
But in the mean time, if these symptoms ring a bell…
Thank you

Im Having Chest Pain On The Right Side After Strenuous Workout.?
January 12th, 2010As stated, I am having pain in the chest area, below the collarbone but just above my right breast. Coughing or taking very deep breaths causes even more pain. Could this be a sign of something worse or is the pain because of my workout. The pain is localized in one specific area.
