Hi,
Upon expanding my chest(breathing in),I get a pain when appling gentle pressure in my chest bone and cavity area. I then get a 'cramping' type of pain upon relaxation,especially when leaning or bending forward. My chest feels tight and sore to the touch at various times. My stomach feels bloated & tense and my rib area often aches. I am 31 and my Doctor has not been helpful at all. These problems have persisted for 2yrs and I am now tired and anxious/worried about this. An xray and blood tests proved to be ok about a year ago but nobody can tell me what I have..and these symptoms are with me each day.
I do not know exactly what heartburn is supposed to feel like but could I have this or perhaps a hiatus hernia? Reflux? Barrets? Diaphragm..or even worse? Please note that I am seeing a chiropractor with lower back problems and sciatica. Could there be a link? WORRIED... can anyone help or has anyone experienced any similar symptoms? Thanks...
