Hi 54 yr old female, out of shape, extreme fatigue, hashimotos, ive been experiencing pressure with some pain in the center of my chest for 4 hours- pain has gone into my back into each arm pit at different times, down the left arm for a short time, and in my chest it feels strangely full up towards the neck, even the pain I had in the center of my chest wasn t horrible but uncomfortable but not intolerable, there was a stabbing pain that was fast a short time ago. I don t want to go in to waste anyone s time- but this pressure although is changing a bit scary any ideas pulse was 68 but not in a steady beat. Sorry such a long question

Hello,

The pain in center of chest, radiating to left arm, should never be neglected as there can be underlying ischemia or coronary circulation as there is pulse irregularity observed by you as well. Kindly get an EKG done at an ER for best evaluation and further guidelines to cure it at earliest before any worsening of the condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
