[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 697808, member: 1963"] Could be costochondritis, which is an inflammation of the soft tissues and cartilage around the ribcage. It can be very painful and can mimic a heart attack depending on what nerves are involved. I've had it for many years, and even with that experience, I wound up in the hospital several years ago because it flared up in the left upperchest and involved the nerves that ran up my neck to my jaw. Took a huge panic in the ER and 3 days of rather unpleasant tests, and nasty food (a hospital version of a cardiac/diabetic diet is disgusting). I finally realized that it was the costochondritis when the right side flared up in concert and it was the exact same pain and pattern. Have her checked by a doctor for this as not only is it bloody painful, it is also associated with various connective tissue disorders. [/QUOTE]
