I have hypothyroidism and m not on medication. was diagnosed last year. I am vegan and having been feelin at my worst for the past to weeks. I've just felt my heart skip a beat and a sharp pain from my chest through to my back. what could this be because doctor who diagnosed me said I also have cholesterol crystals in my chest. I feel weak and finding it difficult to breath. what could it be? please help
