I'm going to schedule an appointment with my doctor in the next few days, but I want some help on describing this thing that's been going on with my chest lately so that I can get a better diagnosis. For the last few years, every so often I get a sort of shooting pain in my chestal region -- i'm assuming it's my heart. It used to only happen once every couple of weeks, but lately it's been happening several times a day.
I guess it feels like someone's grabbing my heart and squeezing it, or like my heart is sort of gushing, and it just hurts like hell for 2 or 3 seconds and then goes away. Has anyone experienced this before, have any advice?
Thanks!
ETA: I've never been diagnosed with any sort of heart conditions before, and the only medication I'm on is oral contraceptives.
