To the stabbing pain in my chest. Thanks for reminding me that I have a heart. Now fuck off and leave me alone before I start to think I’m under some sort of horrible trick gone wrong. —Eye Eye Eye

Go to the hospital….NOW.
is it like a single pain once when you breathe in then goes away?
I get those from time to time… feels like the ribs just failing to contract until they snap back into place.
I’m not saying it’s good… or any better than your situation…
just curious.
please reply OP before you go into cardiac arrest,
I’m ‘dying’ to know.
chug soda pop .
Belch .
gas bubble gone…pain gone .
You might not believe in magic but please say you believe in medical science and get thee to a doctor. The chest pains may not be something ominous but the fatality rate if it is makes it not worth the risk.
Don’t rush to the emergency room and block up the health care system for a twitching pain in your chest. It’s not a heart attack. Doctors will simply tell you it the fibrous muscle tissue around the organs having a spasm.
ok, if sebastard is recommending you not go to a hospital for chest pains
then get your ass there… asap.
If this bitch is legit, seriously OP, head to the ER. I have gone through this myself. What I thought was just a weird pain turned out to be a severe case of myocarditis which caused a heart attack. I spent three weeks in the hospital being treated. Sebasfucktard is just trying to spread the pain in your chest to your arse….. If you are really feeling what you say… get yer ass in gear and see a doctor. STAT.
By the way, if you see a nurse working the ER who looks like Cuddy from House…. tell her I say hey
Sounds like gas pains to me – try chewing some peppermint gum or have a can of pop to move the gas – however, if you feel like there’s a tight band around your chest and/or your left arm is numb, immediately go to the ER.
I hate to admit it, but sebastian_ is more than likely right in this case. I have had similar “heart pains” for several years now and my heart is still working… fine… ahh…
It’s a genetic thing as other family members have it, too. Thanks to every other male in my family, I also know that I can expect to get prostate cancer by the age of 50! Wooh.
My rib cage is also crooked. What the fuck is up with that? Once again, has always been that way, it’s just annoying – I keep trying to straighten it out with little success.
If the OP is wise the OP will consult with real medical professionals instead of relying on the advise of the LTWWB ‘doctors’.
yeah, it may be cardiac ischemia, may be that last burrito you had last night.
what the hell do we know?
so in a couple of weeks someone will say “has anyone seen a post from eye eye eye lately?
i’m no doctor but i play one on tv; and you’re gonna die 🙂
magic you say, just wait awhile til it decides to jump out of your chest then. that will be the real magic. anothe neat trick, would be if you have a heart attack, and don’t croak. get to a doctor you fucking idiot, NOW.
The same people saying go to the hospital are probably the ones abusing the system with the sniffles and paper cuts.
i think this is about a broken heart
I’d go eat a Big Mac Combo…..Wait a minute, I just did 🙂
yes, it does sound like a sob type bitch. but you still haven’t given us any details why,it hurts. please elaborate some on this missing details.
Sebastian’s comments are all so stupid, I suddenly find myself wondering about 2007’s most annoying poster, Ginger. Because if they aren’t the same person, I think they’d be a great match.
