Stabbing pain in chest and throat when overexerting or anything that leaves me breathless

Posted , 2 users are following.

For the past 3 weeks or so when I exert myself I get a stabbing like pain in my throat and in the center of my chest (just above my breasts). It feels like it percusses from the heart as I get a little flutter and then the stabbing pains.

I have recently had an ECG and there was nothing abnormal? A little miss a beat here and there but that has been going on for many years.

I am normally quite fit and healthy but when I do anything that leaves me a bit breathless - housework, exercise, etc - I get these stabbing pains in my throat and chest?

Any advice?

Thank you

    It could be a muscle issue or blood flow problems, speak to your doctor.
