Q. I have a non cardiac breast pain, may be stress related. The stress is gone the pain still there. Any ideas? My pain seems to be concentrated on the breastbone (lower part)and it comes and goes. Stress does have an impact but not always. The pain is not severe but "nagging" and may grow to uncomfortable levels from time to time.
All cardiac connections have been checked and are negative.
A. I just went through that this summer, they thought is was my heart again but after many tests they finally did a scope down my throat(not painfull at all) and found out I had ulcers, even though I never had heartburn or acid reflux. 6 weeks of Prilosic and problem solved. Does it help a little to eat when you feel the gnawing feeling in your stomach? Very good indication of ulcers.

A. I suggest,you go for some pulmonary function testing to see how far gone your disease is,if you have a pulmonary doctor,ask him for a --spirometer to use at home,he will teach you how to use it.chronic bronchitis is almost exclusively a smokers disease,the method of its prevention seems to be obvious and can be summerized in two words--NO SMOKING-there are an increasing number of young individuals taking up this potentially lethal habit,,spread the word to the young people in your family.the most important phase of treatment of chronic bronchitis is -outpatient management- which should include measures to control the progression of the disease,maybe even to reverse pathological changes in your lungs,to control or at least alliviate the symtoms.,,,you should be instructed about proper bronchial hygiene by adequate hydration(water)humidification of inspired air,postural drainage,and other respiratory maneuvers.,,,keep trying to stop,because none of this will work if you dont...peace....
