Weird Feeling In Chest.Sharp Pain That Stabs More When I Breathe In.

Weird feeling in chest, Dr won't refer me to specialist because I'm only 31.? For the past couple of years, I ve had these weird feelings in the center of my breastbone (not near my heart) lower, directly above my stomach. There have been times I ve woken up with a sharp pain right there that stabs more when I breathe in. This has only happened once or twice. Now as I sit here, I feel a milder version of this (not painful) just noticable. I have mentioned this to my PCP (MY main Doc) and she said my insurance won t approve any referral like this because I am only 31 years old. I am a little paranoid because I had a young friend who died a few years ago from an aortic tear suddenly she was younger than I am now at the time. Are these discomforts common? Will asprin help something like this? What would you do? THANKS

can any doctor tell me wat i am facing? Cause i start to get worried, i have a strange feeling at the place just under my breast inside the ribcage, which is not painful but when i sit still, this feeling comes and it stretch to my left outer side of the hand which lead me to feel like a liitle numbness and jerking of my hands and feeling of my breast lower part inside the ribcage area feeling no strength and my hands also start to feeling weird and cant seems to keep my hands still... why is the cause and is there anyway that i can get help from doctors or any scanning is available for this thing? I really need to get his away asap as it is hindering me for almost a week.

You could have esophagial burning as the valve that clamps off the stomach may not be effective and you get an acid reflux, but that is just a guess
