[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 195667, member: 3444"] So go already and maybe it won't be as horrible as you fear. I don't mean to be callous, but you don't gain anything by putting it off. And if there's something the doctor can do to get you feeling better, the sooner you get on it, the better. As for the numbness, it's not necessarily your heart. If you are large breasted and have an ill-fitting bra, there's a condition called thoracic outlet syndrome that can cause numbess or tingling in your arms and fingers. It's due to pressure on the nerve that runs under your collarbone, and for some women, their bra puts too much pressure on the shoulder and this happens. I suspect I have it because when I take a deep breath, I get the tingling sensation down my arms. The shortness of breath is also very likely due to the weight issue and just being out of shape. You could also have asthma and not know it. So make the appointment -- you deserve to feel better and you can't until you find out what's going on. And whatever you do, DON'T take up SMOKING!!!!
