A member asked:
I have been having on and off again pain on the left front of my chest and left upper back. is this something to be concerned about?

Yes it is: You need to see your doctor right away. This sounds like some of the classic symptoms of angina, which can be a sign of heart blockages and a warning sign for heart attack. It may not be that but it's best not to take a chance.
