A member asked:

I have been waking at night with a sort of "tightness" along my sternum with what I would describe as uncomfortable (not painful) breathing. It is also accompanied by an anxious feeling. The chest tightness and anxiousness is also present some during the day (today, for example, it was present most of the day off and on) and seems to be worse if I am sitting or laying down, opposed to standing. I'm unsure if the anxious feeling is due to the chest tightness or the other way around Tightness?
