Hi Keejay, I was looking back over our conversation a year ago. I don't see you

mentioning chest pain at that time. Is this something new for you? If it is and

the pain is bad then you do need to call your doctor or paramedics to check you out.

Our first priority is keeping each other safe on this forum. 4 days is a long time to

put on with unknown pain. Is there a family member or friend who you can call?

I've had chest tightness mainly and chest pain on and off it just never stuck around I figure it is my j ok b because I do some heavy lifting but the numb mouth feeling and the dizziness and headaches are mainly of concern alongside shortness of breath

Keejay, as your chest tightness and pain could be coming from the heavy lifting you

do, I cannot take the responsibility in telling you it's just anxiety since I'm not a doctor.

Because of the other symptoms it would be wise to have your doctor know what's

been going on for the last 4 days. That's not to alarm you, it's to keep you safe.

Keejay, let me know what you decide to do. I care.

Such pain from what you are going through can be caused by much stress as to tension. Even though these are your only two day off it will be better to be safe then sorry to get it checked out. Especially since it has been going on for the past Ninety Six hours. The last you want is for it to worsen. I have been in your shoes. I know how it feels. After going and getting it checked on I felt much more at ease. Knowing it wasn’t anything serious but a pulled muscle in my chest. The hospital will not turn you around but rather do tests on you such as an EKG or a CT Scan. They need to find out what is going on. That’s why they are there. To find the reason of what you have been going through.

I've been t ok the hospitals over countless number of times as well as seeing a physician just to see heads shaking I'll ng ok n my direction as they once again tell me I'm fine and to go home. 🙄 so tired
