i have seen a dr a billion times for this and they are uncertain as to what this pain is...   i've had numerous ecg's(unspecific abnormal t waves) cardiac mri, eps study, stress test, nuclear stress test, ct angio w contrast(no calcium build up) blood tests, gi tests... dr's are confused and unclear .. all cardica tests came back normal except the t waves, and pvc's ....   could this be muscular or could they be wrong...

REPLIED Check Mark

Yes,it might be due to approach of your periods.Its possibility also cannt be neglected.At this time,due to hormonal changes,soreness & uncomfortable to breast or a breast /chest pain may occur.You can wait for your periods when they will be over,you will know what exactly is causing this.

ACCEPTED Check Mark

Hello

It is not like that angina pain occurs only in cardiac area.It can radiate to the centre of chest,neck,upper abdomen,left arm.Your symptoms now are not of anginal pain.So you can only take pain killer medication which I had adviced in previous post.

the pain subsided   but now seemed to return while driving... i think the seatbelt rubbing against my bare skin set off a pain in the chest. kind of like a tugging sensation...   i also get stings when i get the chills as well
