TOS or Heart issue?
Hello all,
I am a 24 year old man. about 5 days ago I had a random episode at work of some pretty moderate probably 6/10 pain level of chest pain. My chest is tender to touch and so is the ribs underneath my axilla (about 2 inches below). I can walk about 15k steps a day and I can still lift without feeling super exhausted.
Symptoms:
\-Pain in left pec, shoulder, lower jaw, back shoulder blade. Weird discomfort in hands (primarily left).
Last night I was sleeping (I normally sleep on my sides) and could not fall asleep and kept getting super anxious when I would feel the pain. Like a sense of fear. I tried to lay on my back and fell asleep very quickly.
I have no family history of heart disease. In the past I have used testosterone at moderate doses, I have vaped a lot, (I stopped in 2022 but I still do when I’m drinking and someone has one). I’ve binge drank a ton but haven’t in months. And I lift a lot.
I also game and work at a desk. I have no sweating dizziness or crazy exhaustion. Just pretty concerned about it. It comes at random times. Today at work it’s been pretty consistent but I actually feel good today.
Does this warrant an ER visit? I went to get an MRI for my cervical spine and it showed nothing.
Thanks for any help.. People close to me and my coworkers know this is a going issue so if anything happens immediately call 911. I honestly just hate wasting the staff’s time because you get disregarded for chest pain as a younger adult or “it’s caffeine”.
