I am suffering severe chest pains for the past 5 days or more. The attacks can last from 20 minutes to over an hour, The pain spreads from the region of the heart to my back and arms. I ad an attack at 15:15 last night. The next at 9:15 this morning followed by yet another at 1:15 pm. An ECG taken at my Doctor's clinic yesterday shows my heart to be in a healthy condition with no change in the readings over the past 4 or 5 years. I had similar pains, though not as severe running down my arms and into my head, face and jaws starting at age 30 (I am now 86 7 11 months), until I took a breath test in 2011 and was treated for H-Pylorhi. I have been relatively free of the pain for 5 years, until it has come back with a vengeance. The pain seems to come on shortly after meals, although there were no symptoms after lunch yesterday. I cannot go for a breath test as I am on 2 PREVACID tablets a day.
Your opinion would be appreciated.
