All day long I was experiencing a pain in my chest. It's to the left of my chest. I don't know if it's boob pain or chest pain. It's just a dull ache that's on and off all day. It goes just as quick as it comes. On a pain scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest, I would put it at about a 2. It's a heavy type of achy pain. That's all.
I found a picture online and edited it to show a rough idea as to where the pain is.
I know I am die my period in a day or two. I am nearly 40 so I presume I am peri-menopausal (spelling?). I don't know if any of that would have anything to do with pains.
The pain doesn't come when I breathe or eat or drink. I think it comes about a lot with certain movements like bending. Would it be possible to strain that area? I don't know. My left shoulder was sore at the weekend. I am a knitter so I don't know if I am straining my body while knitting. Or if it's menstrual related or something else.
It comes and goes about every 5 minutes and only really lasts a few seconds.
Has anyone experienced this before?
