Chest pains
Hi, my boyfriend is 25 years old and often gets chest pains that is really painful. I am really worried about it. I've noticed that it mainly happens when he's stressed or after we've had a fight. I'm just worried that it's serious. My aunt use to get chest pains like that and she had angina and had a heart bypass, although she's quite old. I didn't think that would be the case since he's only 25. I think the pains are sometimes in the middle of his chest or slighty to the side, but quite high up, above his nipples. Please could you tell me if you think this is something to worry about and what we can do to prevent these pains.
Dear Girlfriend
Even at 25 I think that chest pains need to be checked out with at least an ECG and bloodtests. He can use Biral 2 3 times a day when stressed.
