Chest pain

[Arch74]

Is it usual to get pains across the chest with copd, At 4am this morning I woke with quite painful pains across my chest and right in the centre. I had to get up as I couldn't lay flat. It lasted around half hour, then I dropped back off to sleep. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have always been told that any chest pain should be checked out.

Thanks Nottobad, I will do that if it happens again.

Don’t leave it until next time that’s what my husband did and then next time was an heart attack. Not worth waiting for get it sorted.

Arch74, dont ignore warnings, get checked asap x

[Arch74 in reply to Izb1]

Thanks Izb1, I will do. My husband said it could be a warning, but I'm in denile and said it was probably heartburn so as not to worry him as he's just had a pfo closure in his heart. Don't want to stress him. Though I now you are right.

Its just not worth taking the risk, it could be nothing more than heartburn, but could be something more serious x

Please, please Arch Your replies say it all.

Don’t wait for your surgery to open tomorrow.

It’s just not worth taking a risk.

Wishing you a quick result and whatever is needed to ensure it is resolved.
