I went to the ER via ambulance, was having difficulty breathing and the pain was
intense. A CT was completed with no breaks or fractures noted, EKG normal. I lived with the pain for 2 weeks, sneezing or coughing caused excrutiating pain. With followup another EKG was completed with no changes noted. At this point that intense pain has been relieved, but my left upper chest feels numb and when I lean forward I get an intense, burning, stabbing pain in my left chest area.
