Chest Pain. Varying Doctor Opinions. Had Gall Bladder Surgery, Tummy Tuck. Smoker. What Do I Do?
I have had pain in my chest for years under my left breast . I have went to see doctors in the past. Cardio says, rotated heart. Primary says inflamation, ER says pluricy. I did injury myself when I was young and the doctor said my rib was broke but I don t recall an xray . I have had numerious surgery gull bladder tummy tuck and I do smoke . I have always had a bad feeling about it being cancer and still think it could be. I take many sigh breaths and still have pain. My question is what would I do about this. I don t want to be on pain medications.
As you have already seen many doctors and cardiologist also, i would advise you to see a pulmonologist for the chest pain. It looks like your chest pain can be some bronchitis due to your smoking habits and hence being missed. Get a Ct chest done after consulting a pulmonologist and if you are very scared of a cancer then go ahead and get PETCT scan done directly and see for a cancer
