This morning about 6.30 I was just laying in bed and browsing my phone, when I developed suddenly a really bad pain in the back of my neck ( on the base of my scull at the back)
I occasionally get bad neck from laying on my pillow etc, or bad posture but this one was a different one as usually as soon I move or sit up - the pain would get better, but in this case today it was getting actually worse, like graduating and no change of position helped.
It was so bad that I actually started crying.
I also started sweating and felt nauseous and sort of like I felt I couldn’t breathe and the pain moved down across my shoulders, to my back and it felt very sore when I breath in and out.
I managed to go downstairs and take some liquid Ibuprofen for quicker absorption as I felt worse and worse.
It got a better after about 10mins though I felt still a bit strange, like lightheaded.
After it I had to go to on school run.
My back and shoulders still feel very tense even now and sore anytime I move my head especially the left side, also the spine feels sore.
I managed to see Dr ( paramedic) around 9.30, when I told him this he brushed it off as it doesn’t sound like anything to do with my heart, checked my blood pressure which was slightly off but apparently normal, my oxygen stats were ok too and off I go as it sound like muscular issue ( booked ecg in a week)
I looked it up and according to Mr Google I had all signs of heart attack!
I’m very worried now.
Im 48 almost 49 this year.
