Hi! Last week, morning, I felt a stabbing pain on my back, upper left, it lasted for hours on and off, especially when I'm moving. The next day I started to feel some pain/pressure on my left chest (until now), above my breast. The tightness on my chest is on and off too, I usually feel it at night, made me afraid to go to sleep. Right now I feel like there's something lightly stabbing my chest, it goes on and off too. I have no history of heart problem, I'm taking a maintenance meds called montelukast. I'm also having a hard time releasing gas (burp/fart). These past weeks before this chest pain, I was experiencing heartburn almost everyday. Aside from the tightness on my chest I'm not feeling any weird or bad things. Has anyone experienced the same thing as me, and any advice on what to do, aside from getting myself admitted on the hospital? I'm really broke right now and can't afford check up and tests. I'm getting anxious everytime the pain is back.

Thank you in advance.
