Why Do I Feel Nauseous And Severe Discomfort Around The Chest?
Question: I feel nauseous and as if someone is squeezing my lungs very hard, very unpleasant.
Brief Answer:
Please if you could tell us a bit more about this.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I don't think if any of the medicine you say could be directly blamed for it, though naproxen can do harm the stomach which may cause nausea and pain , but the term 'squeezing of lungs' would need some more explanation so that we know could rule out more serous causes , related to lungs and heart .I would be glad if you could explain this more for us that what do you exactly mean by this.
If you could please tell me that if you suffer any pain in your chest? or if you feel any difficulty in breathing or shortness of breath ?and if you could tell me that is this feeling increased by exercise?
I am asking all these questions just to be sure that we don't miss any thing more serious and manageable.
Also if you have any previous medical condition.
Looking forward to know more about your symptoms
Kind Regards
Dr Rahman

Hi Dr
Thank you for your response - it went into my Junk email, so I missed it until now.
Thank you for your advice - I wanted to check that there wasn't anything in the natural products such as Devils Claw or Fish oil that would be causing it.
I have stopped taking Naproxen and last night I had a good nights sleep, with no pain. So, I will continue with devils claw and the other herbal items and go see my GP to see if I can stop altogether Naproxen.
Kind regards
