Chest pain

[mnmckee24]

I have been having chest pain, sometimes dull, sometimes sharp in my right side (to the left of my right breast). Sometimes I feel it in my shoulder and back. I have had an EKG in the past and nothing....I also am the bill of health except for some high cholesterol like a year ago. I have changed my diet and excercised since. I am 5'-4" and 142 pounds. I look about 130 though so a lot of my weight is muscle. I lift and do cardio but the pain is progressing from once every coupl of weeks to daily. I am 31 years old. What are the possible causes or solutions? Anyone?

Do you sleep on your right side?  Try changing to the left for about a week and see if it makes a difference....

Any possible damaging heart conditions would refer a pain pattern referring in the middle of your chest eg the sternum. Other pain patterns could be signs of muscular cramps or an unknown underlying cause that might be something else than a heart condition.
