Dear Madam/Sir: I'm a 20-year old woman who has been experiencing tightness and pressure between my breats. These episodes last about 20 minutes. During them I become hot and sweaty: sometimes very nauseated. When I breathe in, I can feel a tingling in my back - like someone is pushing needles in my back. These episodes happened 3 times in last week, and only started this last Wednesday. When they happen, I simply lie down and rest, though I experience more pain when I lie down. The first day, it was very intense; subsquent episodes have not been as severe - though still located in the same place. I've no past medical treatments or surgery of any kind, and am currently on birth control pills, and there are no drugs or alcohol involved. I've gotten more and more concerned and would like your opinion about what I should do. Do I check into a hospital for full evals, or do I try and find a G.P., as I do not have on currently. Would you please let me know asap. Thank you very much. Customer (name blocked for privacy) (407.421.6112 or 407.679.9486)
