Hello,
This is my second question. I had a couple of migraine attacks last winter during which I experienced chest pain/tightening which extended up to the jaw. Both times it was towards the tail end of an attack (mine last 3-4 days) and during the night which woke me from sleep. It lasted about 10 minutes I guess and was about 4 on a scale of 1 - 10. Went to the doctor who did bp, cholesterol, chest x-ray & ecg, but nothing found. In fact everything looked fine, she said. I had a few migraines during the summer with no chest pain. I'm wondering if my doctor may have missed something as I know migraines are vascular. Anyway she stopped me from using Sumatriptan & I now take 2 x migraleve & 900mg aspirin. One of the chest pains occured after I'd stopped using Sumatriptan so I don't think it was that.
Is this normal, do others get chest pains or do you think it's just muscular? I'm 59.
