Chest Pain?


Question:
Was sound asleep and woke up about 15 minutes ago with terrible pain in my chest on my left side. Tried sitting up and laying in a different position but this pain really hurt. The pain seems to have eased a bit now Was very sharp like a knife. Had pain in my eye and bits of pain in my body throughout the day, earlier .

Was wondering should i go to the hospo, or just let it go, or maybe just visit a doc in the morning?

Answers:
Err on the side of caution and seek medical assistance as soon as possible.

Any chest pain lasting more than 10 minutes should always be investigated especially if you have the following
Signs and Symptoms
Pain (sudden crushing, stabbing)
* central chest
* Arms (left)
* jaw
Breathing Difficulties
Confusion, anxious, dizzy
Pale skin, cold clammy, sweating

Which may lead to Unconsciousness and Heart may stop (cardiac arrest).

Call an ambulance if your unsure.
I get this sometimes also..very rarely..im thinking maybe its just really bad gas pain. seriously,watch what your eating.
It is always best to seek medical help ASAP! It is important for you to go directly to your nearest ER!!
To be safe you would have to go in People die at home or by the time they get to hosp due to delaying and being"embarrassed" Just go and if its not a big thing you will know it and be able to rest or follow up w Doctor in office if its not urgent You'll be glad you did Medical people understand this type of thing and will not berate you for it
We are counting on you to go
Let me know how you did once home and rested another day
Hospital now!
And take 2 Aspirin now if you are allowed!
