[|Human|] I have a dull ache/pain on left side of my chest, just above my breast. A little shortness of breath. My blood pressure is a little high (but could be that I am stressing over this pain in my chest) @ 149/98 and a pulse of 63. Those are my only symptoms and I have been under a lot of stress lately. No dizziness; fatigue; nausea;vomiting; or cold sweats. Should I be worried about heart attack? I am only 41 (female) and in relatively good health. I do have scoliosis & was wondering if my back pain and my turned ribcage could be causing the pain and maybe the source of the dull pain in my chest.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, we should definitely rule out heart related diseases for your symptoms as heart diseases is likely to cause chest pain, shortness of breath and hypertension. So consult doctor and get done 1. Blood pressure monitoring 2. Ecg3. 2d echo If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Your chest pain is mostly musculoskeletal pain due to Scoliosis. And your high blood pressure, mild shortness of breath etc. are due to stress and anxiety. So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic Chat Doctor.  For chest pain, apply warm water pad and take ibuprofen. Don't worry, you will be alright bit first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
