Potential heart attack or pulled muscle.?Last night before i got ready for bed my chest started to hurt. It was very tender to the touch and i cant lay on either of my side without putting more pressure on my chest. It feels like something is constantly sitting on it mostly on the right side between my breast and above my nipple. I don't know what to do because i haven't been doing any strenuous activity. I couldn't hardly sleep last night and its still the same today I did just quit smoking and drinking and i quit taking paxil. I also have GERD and other digestive disorders but i have never felt anything like this it feels like a pulled muscle in my chest if so what can i do to fix it. VERY PAINFUL!!!!

I quit smoking cigs and soda at the same time... Let me tell you i was having ALLLL sorts of pains aches and what not.... after 60 days off soda and cigs i chalked it up to withdrawls... Have someone check you bloodpressure.. also if you did pull a muscle in your chest it seems to be like you describe, ive pulled rib muscles or whatever and it was a bitch to sleep and i didnt do anything crazy just happened

im not exactly sure what u might have.
however, if u are a tall, skinny and u "smoke" then u might have a disease called "pneumothorax". it is when air escapes ur lungs and goes between ur lungs and ur chest cavity.
i highly recommend u go to see a local doctor immediately, they might have to do some tests before even knowing what the problem is. then u most likely, will have to go a hospital that can give u treatments.

You may have ischemic heart disease. Check lipid profile. Quit smoking and drinking for ever.
Paroxetine (generic name) Paxil (brand name) may also be contraindicated in many adult men due to sexual and reproductive side effects. Do not stop taking paroxetine without talking to your doctor. Your doctor will probably decrease your dose gradually. If you suddenly stop taking paroxetine, you may experience withdrawal symptoms such as depression; mood changes; frenzied or abnormally excited mood; irritability; anxiety; confusion; dizziness; headache; tiredness; numbness or tingling in the arms, legs, hands, or feet; unusual dreams; difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep; nausea; or sweating.
Certain foods and lifestyle are considered to promote gastroesophageal reflux:
* Coffee, alcohol, and excessive amounts of Vitamin C supplements are stimulants of gastric acid secretion. Taking these before bedtime especially can promote evening reflux. Calcium containing antacids are in this group.
* Foods high in fats and smoking reduce lower esophageal sphincter competence, so avoiding these tends to help, as well. Fat also delays emptying of the stomach.
* Having more but smaller meals also reduces the risk of GERD, as it means there is less food in the stomach at any one time.
* avoid eating for 2 hours before bedtime
* avoid soft drinks
* avoid chocolate and peppermint
* avoid spicy foods
* avoid acidic foods like oranges and tomatoes (however, they are okay when fresh.)
* avoid cruciferous vegetables: onions, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, brussel sprouts
* milk and milk-based products contain calcium and fat, so should be avoided before bedtime
