Hello Dawn,
It seems that the pain in your shoulder blade associated with chest pain could be related possible local inflammation of shoulder blade and vertebral spine with pinched nerve.
I advise to:
- apply analgesic cream locally
- take over the counter analgesic cream
- take magnesium supplement
- massage with essential oils
If the pain will get worse, and if you'll get difficulty in breathing should go to ER for immediate evaluation and treatment.
Wish fast recovery.
