Hi all of you with left upper shooting pains under breast bone. I have had this problem in the past. IF and only IF you have had everything checked out by doctors and they told you everything is OK, then I suggest you should checkout HELICOBACTER PYLORI which can cause an ulcer leading to pain when eating certain foods. Another thing is to check how you sleep at night. Do you sleep with your fist under your left chest? IF so then that might be the cause of your pain, the knuckle, which is digging into your chest which can then lead to these upper chest pain coming back and forth, all depending on the way you slept. I hope that nothing is serious, and I wish you all well. Rose.

My name is Lucy and I am a 16 year old meth and heroin addict. I have been experiencing pain in my heart that spreads to my jaw, left arm, and tingles down my fingers. I have been sober for almost two months and have gone to several different doctors but none have helped. I get dizzy, and nauseated. I also experience extreem discomfort, touble breathing, trouble remembering how to breathe, and spotted vision. I'm really scared about my heart. I felt my ribs and three seem to be damaged but I don't want to diagnose myself. It comes in waves, and not all the time. I'm really frightened. Can someone please help me figure this out?

I'm a 17 year old male and I've been having left side chest pain for a few weeks now, it doesn't happen very often but several times a day, it's sometimes very painful but it's only for a few seconds so I can't complain much about it. It happens sometimes when I breath out, it also happens sometimes if I do it fast. What could it be?

I'm 15 and woke up this morning with a sharp pain on my left side under and above my chest bone and my mom thought it was a wind but it won't go away ?

Hi, my name is ALONGE, and I've had this left chest pain 2yrs ago. Believe me, if you've gone to your doctor and he/she said everything is ok....it means you have an ulcer. Ulcer pain gives a symptoms like a heart attack affecting your shoulders and your leg. You just need to watch your diet and take enough water and fresh juice.... Then the pain is GONE for good. Note: stay away from deep fried meals, Gaseous drinks, Pepper and junks because those are the things that causes acid reflux and can affect your chest big time.
