What Is Recurring Sharp Pain Below The Collar Bone Suggestive Of?

Had triple bypass heart surgery four years ago. Been doing well. I m 68 years old have highcolestoral , type two diabetes under control with meds. Just in to see primary doctor overdue to see cardiologist. Woke up this a.m. with sharp pain below my collar bone, left side seems located above ribs. If I stay still it quiets down just moving regularly starts a sharp type ongoing pain. Should I call my primary doctor, heart doctor or just wait and watch? I can be a bad patient had two heart attacks and didn t go to my doctors or hospital.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, you do have the history of cardiac disease and already went under the bypass so better to see the cardiologist and no need to take any risk, once it is not related with the cardiac disease then it is nothing to worry but right now better to see the cardiologist hope this information helps.
