i used to get this from fast food. on saturday i had a high-fat dinner (green bell peppers stuffed with beef and cheese) and woke up with very noticeable tightness/pain in left chest. still very with me monday.

pain does not spread/radiate elsewhere, as is described for heart attacks

in the past docs have suggested it's acid reflux / heartburn or somesuch, which seems wrong to me. it's very specifically located where i believe the heart is, and there is no esophageal burning afaik

this is the worst case in a long time, and worrying

wondering if emergency room is wise
