Dizziness, Sharp Pain When Breathing Radiating To Ribcage. Have Nodules On Thyroid. Symptoms Due To Thyroid?
I had sharp pain in my mid left side and when I took a deep breath it hurt and radiated to under my ribcage for a few moments and I GOT DIZZY , I was stooped down when this happened. Then it happened a week later for a few moments. I have nodules on my thyroid and had a biopsy a year ago and things were alright. Could the thyroid cause any of these symptoms?

hello, the thyroid problem is very unlikely to be the cause of the problem. it sounds more like a cardiac problem (pericarditis to be more precise). you should have a thorough cardiac exam. thanks
