anyone else suffering with cronic back and chest tension,pain

[aylish28]

I am wondering if it is common in people with heart worries to suffer from chronic tension in the chest back shoulder neck areas???I am finding it very very tiresome,,,

Hi ...glad you asked that question as I am having a similar experience...i have terrible pain up under my left shoulder blade and when my husband rubs it it feels like tight banjo strings....i also have pain in my upper left side ribs...I don't know if these things are related to heart stresses, but i understand what you are talking about...I also see a chiropractor--it helps some, but i think i need a full time masseuse, lol...take care, God bless!

I do.
I used to believe the attacks were "angina",

but basically in my case they are tense muscles in the back that cause a chain reaction of tension.
travels down my left arm to my left pinkie finger and the left of my chest too.

I am seeing a chiropractor at the moment because i have a small problem with my spine.
He says the tension originates in that spot.



Starting sports and seeing i can do it without a problem has made me confident I don't have angina pectoris. My attacks are related to emotional stress and cold.
