See a doctor: Hi. Are you a type 1 or type 2? Any kidney failure? Any family history of premature coronary artery disease (CAD)? Your symptoms sound characteristic of angina. CAD is a diagnosis that should not be missed; should be diagnosed and treated. If not CAD, then other conditions can be considered. Evaluate the most dangerous stuff first. Good luck!
