Three days ago, I started feeling pain and numbness under my arm and then 2 itchy bumps appeared on my back, both on the left side of my body.The doctor said that there are no lumps on my underarm (as sign of breast cancer) but when she saw the rashes on my back, she said that I may have shingles.I read facts about it and I get confused that the pain that I have is not on the same area as that of my rashes.Is this normal w/ shingles?Now, I still am under observation, awaiting for the rashes to come out so I may be given the right medication.But the pain is progressing, there are stabbing, tingling pains around the left upper side of my body.I even have a little chest pain that occurs occasionally.What else should I expect to feel as an effect or symptom of shingles.Is it also possible to have several areas of the body to develop rashes or is it really on one area only?

Is There A More Effective Treatment For My Erratic Heartbeat Than What I’m Currently Receiving?
December 29th, 2009I am 55 and have been under treatment for an erratic heartbeat since I was in my late 20′s. However, the treatment I’m presently receiving – 320 mg. of Inderal per day plus 1.5 mg of Xanax – is only partially effective. I am wondering if there might be a more effective treatment available to me. The condition doesn’t bother me much when I am resting or relaxed. Though it seems to be triggered mostly by my emotions, I have noticed that more and more it flares up under physical strain as well. I seriously doubt if I could endure a stress test simply because the fear of such a test would probably trigger an episode before they could even start it. I’ve never had any chest pains or any other symptoms of heart disease. I am also being treated for mildly high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol and an anxiety disorder. What bothers me most is the degree to which I am affected psychologically by all this. It puts a crimp in my lifestyle and keeps me from doing things that I might ……

Any Medical Professionals Out There, Quick Question About Chest Pain?
October 22nd, 2009I woke up today with a pain in my chest, on my right side just above my breast in the middle of my chest. Ok so its just a sort of sharp pain when I breath or move abit. The pain is not too bad, but it is a discomfort. I have experienced this before quite a few times but today its worse than other times. I have told my doctors about it numerous times, but each has said something different. The last one said use nerofen gel, which I am using but its not helping now. This pain comes on abruptly and randomly, every few months, I do have asthma but I have NO breathing problems, just a sharp pain above my right breast on the left side.
What is this? I looked on the internet and I think it might be Costochondritis, I am not a medical person so its just a guess, What do you think? Should I go to the doctor? Everytime I see them they just say, it will go away, dont worry about it. However I am worried

Is There A Doc That Can Explain This Chest Pain?
October 14th, 2009After an episode of crushing chest pain that lasted 30-45 minutes, I was admitted to the hospital, determined not to have had a heart attack, but was observed overnight.
That night I had a 6 beat run of vtach. I am now on a 30 day monitor.
My symptoms seem to be getting worse. Now its short bursts of crushing chest pain, almost always when my heart drops into the 50-65 bpm range. Then I feel like my head is going to explode and my left arm goes numb – earlier it was even the whole left side of my body. Last night I had stabbing pains that jolted me out of a sound sleep. I have to wait several days before they can tell me what my monitor says for that time.
If I ran to the ER every time this happened, I’d just as well sleep in the parking lot because I’d be going every day. So what causes such awful pain at low heart rates in a healthy 30 something female with strong family heart disease history?
EKGs have been normal (sinus brady)
