Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain And Breathing Difficulty

Please, please respond. For the past 3 days, my girlfriend has had sever back pain on the right side of her body that is made worse by movement and reaching, and also by breathing. Tonight, she started having chest pain on the right side of her chest, and her breathing has become progressively more difficult. She has also been fatigued for the last three days. Since it is Saturday, it is not possible for me to contact a doctor at this time, so we will have to wait till Monday. She is having more and more trouble taking deep breaths, she is basically limited to taking very shallow breaths.

Please respond. I am very worried about her and I am not sure what actions to take. She is thirty minutes away, but if I need to drive down there, I can. She is with her parents, so if there is something they need to do, they can.

Again, PLEASE RESPOND. I am really worried and she is really scared. I am doing my best to keep her calm but I need to figure out what action to take.

Hi

Take her to ER for medical help and further examinations if needed. Nothing to do at home
