    Yes I get the same thing, also shortness of breath with it - seems to be triggered whenever I'm in stuffy or poorly ventilated places or over heated places. Get painful stomach pains similar to a very bad stitch or like extremely bad period pain for a few hours every day. Had many tests and nothing has come up as to what can be causing these sypmtoms so I've had to come to conclusion it must be hormone issues and my body's personal experience dealing with the imbalance. Just trying to get through it all as best I can...have really low days and better days....looking forward to the time when it all settles. Hope you feel better soon also.

    I had gastitis in peri and this can cause pain in chest area I would ask for an endoscopy if it continues (which I did) I was given ppi's which helped clear it eventually x

    So it seems like one of the main issues that is creating many other issues is anxiety. We all seem to suffer from it! I feel like a train wreck anymore!

    I am also currently experiencing chest tightness, (44 yrs old). This creates more stress and anxiety. I am due to start period next week. Hopefully its just hormonal. Hope you're feeling better?!
