Exam: It's worth looking into. We had a motto at our emergency room that pain, or even just strange sensations, above the waist were cardiac until proven otherwise. Get an exam and a discussion with a health care professional. Better safe than sorry. Unlike the old days, there are now so many things you can do to prevent or stop heart problems.
