Reply to Lindie's Post: Absolutely not. I have a healthy diet. I've been having liver problems(abnormal liver enzymes for about 2 yrs now, some necrosis,fibrosis in Biopsy) Doctor thinks I have Hep C, but its impossible because of the many ways Hep C is contracted. I have never had a tatoo/piercing, sex(at 38 I am still a virgin(I am a devout Christian waiting for marriage)never had a blood transfusion, nor ever used needles or drugs, etc. The most I've done is use my brother's razor. He recently was diagnosed with Alcoholic Hepatitis, which is not the same as Hep C. So I'm not sure if my chest/upper back pain is related. Other than Major Depression, I am very healthy physically.

Reply to Lindie's Post: Hi, thank you for your response. My pain is exactly all around the breast area. In other words it is in the upper area where my breasts are. The pain is radial. It usually starts in my upper back, the area where the back of my bra is and goes around completely to the front area of my breasts. I do not feel any pain below my breastbone nor any lower part of my back. The pain is very localized. It goes across toward the back exactly where my bra is. When the pain is severe then the pain spreads to my entire back. At times there is minimal pain in my chest but really sharp pain in my back. Please be advised that I went to see my doctor, but she had an emergency and a male doctor saw me instead. I was hurt and insulted when he asked "is your bra on too tight?" I actually informed my female doctor and she said it was inappropriate of him to ask such a question. After all he knew I had spent 3 days in a row because of my pain. Nothing helped except when they gave me 2 shots of some kind of narcotic pain medication. I hope I've given you enough information and then some. Sorry.
