Hello,

For the past month or so I've been having weird "spasms in my chest/upper back. They don't hurt but seem to take my breath away. Recently I've been noticing that the right side of my chest has been feeling very heavy and tight. It seems to affect my shoulder blade on my right side away. It feels almost like there is a "knot" in my shoulder blade. For the past week or so I've been having difficulty breathing as well. Its not that I can't breathe but it just feels very heavy, like I'm trying harder to draw a breath. It seems to be worse at night when I'm trying to sleep or when I first wake up. I went to the E.R when it all started and was told I was just "sick" and was given medicine for Bronchitis but they didn't seem to work and I'm hesitant to go back because of expenses and for fear of being seen as a "hypochondriac" but I cant help but worry. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Adam
