I am trying to find out what the difference is between these two, regards symptoms because I am 28 I think my doctor is looking straight past the heart problem issue and going straight for heart burn. I got one of those ecg things done at my gp's and they said it looks ok but again it is always followed by well your too young. I have been a lover of butter for quite a few years, I eat healthy except the butter though so its not all bad. The doctors should know that I have a family history of heart conditions if they looked on my records. But to me I have had heart burn before or what I think heart burn is it is usually when i have just eaten and/or eaten too fast and it doesnt settle well it would be more of a central chest pain like acid.
But this pain as described to my doctor or at least tried to is a left hand side stabbing pain for no reason I haven't eaten recently or anything, it can come on when stressed or when i'm doing stuff. It feels really bad the pain like no pain I have ever felt you just stop doing everything and sit down, it must be the bodies way of trying to protect you, it can be stabbing for 15mins 30mins or more.
Does anyone see these symptoms as heart burn because it would be good to know I can push myself exercise wise.
You should be on my FB sqadlet - it's all going on there. Lot's of humour, jokes & good wishes - just how I like it!! Though my sis-in-law is squealing on my past demeanours & our district nurse is getting her humerus mixed up with her humorous - not a good sign on a district nurse....
I'm a bit shakey today - first full day without the drugs. I look as though I've got the D.T.s.... Pass the gin.
