Heart disease or plaque build-up occurs over the course of a lifetime. A couple things can tell you if you should be converned. Blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Get them tested. If they are both high, get concerned and keep your ear to the wall.

Heart condition maybe maybe not but it is one of the symptoms going into the armpit but there are many other symptoms too so I wouldn't worry too much but getting it looked at ASAP would be a good idea . It sounds like a pinched nerve but I know that symptom I've felt that various times throughout my life including during my MI .

Don't wait go see your doctor. I just put my husband in the ICU with the same describition of pain in his chest. His left elbow also hurt. His EKG and Chest eray where basically alright but his blood level for topinal? the chemical the body release when one has a heart attack was high. I dragged him there kicking and screaming all the way. Don't add extra stress to the ones you love by being hard headed. The only way you will know is to get checked out.I actually got on this sight hoping I could find some answers as to what I should be asking the doc in the morning? Anyone with suggestions? Thanks
