I’ve had random chest pain at night for the past few months. My most recent attack started around 1 in the morning on Sunday and has continued until today (Thursday). Advil and over the counter pain killers do nothing. Heating packs help a little bit I can barely sleep or eat I can’t focus on any of my work and walking around takes an incredible amount of energy. The doctor wouldn’t give me anything for the pain and told me I would just have to wait it out but I have a life and I can’t live like this. Does anyone know what I should do?

    Chest pain shouldn't be ignored, Alexia. I hope you can soon get a helpful diagnosis and confidently decide what you should do.  Please take the best of care of yourself.
