What Is The Cause For The Pain In My Breast With Acid Reflux After Triple By-pass Surgery?
I had triple by-pass surgery 16 years ago. I have been having sharp pains in my left breast on occasion. Some feel like I am being stabbed. It comes a goes. Sometimes in a week or 2 span. I do have acid reflux. Am I getting ready to have another heart attack?
Hello, I don't think that the pain you are dealing with has a coronary origin. But it is the same for the acid reflux. To be completely sure you have to do a stress test because sometimes the pain is not characteristic.
