To an Emergency Room: Chest pressure, chest pain, or trouble breathing are signs meaning go to the E.R. Chest pain symptoms can be a heart attack. One should not drive herself (it's safer to go by ambulance). If she turns out not to have myocarditis or heart attack symptoms, the E.R. will also have evaluated for problems such as a collapsed lung, pneumonia, or reflux. Chest x-ray, EKG, and labs can be done at the E.R.
