A member asked:

Tightness & mild pain in my upper left quadrant. slight difficulty breathing. happens upon awakening. my heart rate is 60. is this a heart condition?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible, but...: doubt it. You seem too young, pain occurs at wrong time, also probably in wrong place. If continues to bother I'd go get it checked out with a health care professional.
