Just that really. I'm (fairly) young and healthy. Not long had 2nd baby and I've been getting a tight chest with pain in my shoulder and arm on and off for a while.
Today I went to the GP who pushed a few places and listened to my chest and she diagnosed Costochondritis. This kind of makes sense due to the pain when she pushed on the cartilage where my breastbone is.
I just panic as the symptoms can feel like heart attack and I've not had an ECG or X-ray or anything. Maybe I just need reassurance. My heart rate was fine. BP on the low side.
Thanks in advance.
