Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Sharp pain in my chest while driving. Nearly had to stop such is the severity of it. Then broke out in a clammy sweat. Has eased now just a dull chest pain. I have Costochondritis and have experienced bad pain but this is new. Should I be overly worried about this?

Hello,
In view of details, I would surely recommend a precautionary visit to doctor and get EKG done sooner.
Avoid any physical or mental stress till then.Have someone look over patient continuously.
Hope this helps.Regards.
