Can recheck with Dr.: A person whose pain is not better on medication generally can recheck with her doctor to see if a different drug can be tried, a different dose might be better, an additional drug could help, plus to check if the pain is still consistent with the original diagnosis. That said, pain under the breast bone can be heart attack pain, and may need an evaluation at the ER. "Better safe than sorry."
