chest pains!

sitries · 17-02-2006, 01:49 PM

For the last month or so i have noticed that my chest on the left side becomes very tight when i breath in heavily - particulary when i sneeze. I wondered if anyone has heard of this before or knew what it may be? just thought id ask here before i go and see a doctor. im in week 8 of a test anavar cycle. thanks for any help.
ps - when i last went to the drop in centre the guy said he thougt my blood pressure was a little high - so maybe this has something to d with it also.

Just go to the doctor, don't want some wannabe doc giving wrong diagnosis on here.

Must keep blood pressure under control though.

What are you supplementing for blood pressure?

sitries · 17-02-2006, 02:42 PM

im taking a multi vit, vit b 100, flaxseed oil, epa fish oils, milk thistle, hair skin and nails formula and finasteride. im not taking anythinh for blood pressure. what should i be taking?

its not like the pain is unbearable, its more of a tightening feeling. but its obviously a little worrying as its around the heart area.

You should take RRY (Red Rice Yeast) Hawthorne Berry and Some Cranberry caps. But you should defintely go to a doctor

probably best to take an asprin every 6 hours just for temporary pain/BP relief, but buy some of what YG says.

sounds muscular. Do you need to breath in so heavily? Anxiety can cause tightnes of the chest muscles from hyperventilating.
I doubt very much that it's anything serious however, if you're really worried go and see your doctor. Especially if the pain is travelling down your left arm.

i dont need to breath heavily - its just when i sneeze or yawn that i notice it. there is no pain down my arm or anything like that and tbh its not really causing me any real discomfort. im just a little worried because its not normal and it doesnt feel like my pec aching or anything like that. Imay go to the dovtors to be on the safe side - but i dunno if i can be arsed with thehasstle of having to go in and tell them that im taking steroids etc etc

I wouldn't tell your doctor you're using anabolics, they may be required to reveal it in future for things like insurance.

Sitries...

I have had similiar experiences such as the ones you've described. The best way I can think of to describe it would be a sharp achy feeling upon taking deep breaths....mostly upon yawning. It became a large concern after a short while so I scheduled an apt. with the doc. After doing an electro-cardiogram, they came to the conclusion that nothing was out of the ordinary and weren't exactly sure of why this was happening. I still get this once in a while....never had it when sneezing tho so maybe yours isn't the same type of deal that mine was. Wouldn't worry about it bro, but if it gets any worse I'd def recommend getting into the doc. Good luck bro and keep us updated...
