[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Actually, what I was looking for was "Yeah, I had those exact symptoms and it was X." I spoke with a doctor friend (former ER doc) yesterday and he said it sounded like costochondritis and that my plan was sound. He said there is no reason to think that it is a major problem.

There is absolutely no way a doctor can tell you what this is from a conversation. My husband, the one with the emergency bypass, also thought he has costochondritis. And his doctor whom he spoke with thought the same thing. He actually passed an EKG -- we learned it isn't effective for 10% of people. By the time he made it to a cardiologist -- who, by the way, thought it was insane that his doctor didn't take it more seriously. The cardiologist said ANY TIME YOU HAVE CHEST PAIN WITH EXERTION YOU TAKE IT VERY VERY SERIOUSLY == DSH almost died.

Not a single person has come on here to say "I had these symptoms and it was X". You have convinced yourself that it is nothing. I hope you are right. I think you are being reckless.[/quote]
