I was told in pharmacy school: "If you ever find yourself making excuses for why you are not having a heart attack, you are probably having a heart attack." If it turns out you are not, you still acted accordingly.
Okay but what happens after you have been to multiple doctors and had various ER visits and still get dull pressure on the right side of the chest that can’t be explained
Why would you come on here and give this good man a thumbs down? He is a great doctor and performs an invaluable service on this channel! Thank you, Dr. Berry! It’s a rare day I don’t listen to your post & share it.
Simple because they r horrible ppl and its like when u loan ppl money and they never give it back .its worth it just to get rid of the bugs, take take take ..... so as I said its worth it . So these ppl are haters ,uneducated idiots
My son started having heart attacks at age 17. The ER doctors refused to even check him out. They would say it is a panic attack and send him home. When he was 19 he finally went into cardiac arrest in front of the ER doctor that had just finished saying he was having a panic attack. A subsequent cardio cath showed scarring from multiple heart attacks. ER doctors in this area are not interested in finding out what is the matter with you.
Sadly most doctors are like they don't want to help, here in USA are so cold with no compassion. They just want their money from the insurance, prescribed anything to keep you sick so that way you'll come back to them. I started w chest right upper side pain on ,Wednesday I thought I was dying thanks God I feel a little better. I'm going 2the Dr. On Wed hope it's nothing important.
Stress and Anxiety are NO joke! Ive been stressed before but not like this year. I've been working from home since March and will at least through the end of the year. Stress and anxiety attacks hit me hard in late May and early June. The workload has doubled since before the "virus who shall not be named". I seriously wondered if I would die.
Your amazing, thankyou for spending your time sharing this with us and I found this very helpful as I have right hand pain but not bad now and then has cleared a lot of my doubts
I had chronic low level pleurisy type pain around my whole chest for a long time. I cut out about 99% of my grains and sugars eighteen months ago and the chest pain is GONE. I didn't realize it was gone for quite awhile. I was so used to having it that it became normal. I realize now it was inflammation. Possibly autoimmune related.
I had left or right sided flank pain and it was a precursor to a blood clot that went into my pulmonary arch. I had severe dizziness when I had sat on the toilet to go to bathroom. I coded and needed CPR. I was diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating poly neuropathy (CIDP) a rare autoimmune disease. I just happen to be in the VA hospital getting rehab for the CIDP. I needed to be in a wheelchair for 11 months. You are right about the chest pain-any chest pain is not normal get it evaluated!!!
Thank you, Dr. Berry. Pericarditis also happens in lupus patients, along with costochondritis. Low carb and intermittent fasting has changed my life, as a lupus patient with a dramatic reduction in occurrence of these symptoms, thanks to your guidance.
Had severe midle chest pain last year like an heavy weight, which triggered a panic attack(became hard to breathe) and it migrated the pain/weight feeling to the back and both sides of chest..it lasted for 10hours+, went to hospital and they said i had an anxiety/panic attack. I got the pain and heavy feeling again 3 days later( and kept hapening for a month+), after a lot of search and trial/error my symptoms by triggering them, i noticed it was related to food and realized i might have acid reflux until a private doctor determined i had it. HiiT, diet changes,IF and huge weight loss helped a lot with it, so i only have chest pain when i eat trigger foods or lay down right after eating, which i avoid. I really thought i was gonna die when it first happened, was so strong pressure and pain, laying down makes it even worse!
I've had a number of cases of a very harsh level of costochondritis. "An inflammation of the cartilage that connects a rib to the breastbone. The cause usually isn't known. In some circumstances, it develops after trauma or a muscle strain." You can literally feel like you had a heart attack or angina or a broken rib. I've been to the hospital each time, a few hours after the onset (I tried Tylenol and sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't).
Oh ya! Shingles! Had that when I was offshore 250 miles on the rig once and worked through it for 2 weeks and thought I was going to just die. I was told by medic I was allergic to the laundry detergent! Frigging idiots! Took me 2 more months to get over that!
What about a general discomfort in the right side of your chest located (usually, but not always) in a specific area with no other presenting symptoms? I've had general weirdness in the right side of my chest, sometimes the middle, for about 8 months now. Sometimes it's bad, sometimes it's not there at all for weeks. I know it probably sounds absolutely absurd not to have gone to the doctor for it by now but I cannot afford a doctor. 😥
This sounds like what I have been experiencing for almost a year. I’ve had slight discomfort along my bottom right rib, had ultrasound and liver fibrosis scan and both came back negative, cannot find a pattern as to what triggers the pain.... all the doctors could say was “don’t eat keto, it will kill you, that’s probably why your side hurts”.
@@smithapathak1926 I still have the pain. Mine is more of a pulling or squeezing, I guess maybe sometimes burning, but still not triggered by anything, happens during a fast or during eating. You don’t happen to have an iud do you? I do and I’m finding all kinds of threads of women complaining of an aray of side effects including thyroid disease, which in turn can cause liver issues.
My right chest is paining 3 to 4 days still.... Whenever I breath and move my right hand .. right chest is paining. I think it should be muscle strain! Anyone know anything pls tell me.....
I had a mild heart attack 3 weeks ago. I had my carotid scanned at that time and ended up with emergency carotid surgery. It's hard to know what's going on
oh i'd die even if i had a mild won since i cant go to doctors bc of corona and guess what? i got 4 symptoms of a mild heart attack mild pain chest , spreading to another place, axienty, and light headedness im off to die
Right chest pain for 6 months when I touch it or lay face down. Its a specific are. I had a pitbull that attacked me and it hurt my chest or. I have severe acid reflux.
Thanks for this video Here is my history… I am 21. I usually have small chest pains (left side) close to the ribs This pain is like 2/10 , Its so mild but annoying I tought it was heart but i did exams and all of them are great I work in the construction só i have to carry big weights. Some times my Back (behind left side) gives little sharps and i can feel my bones cracking a lot My problem is just i Have anxiety So yesterday , even knowing i dont have any heart problem I had an anxiety attack and tought that , the small pain were from heart and i started to get nervous . A Lot of nervous So my body just reacted to my anxiety and heart beat was fast, my chest turned red because i was everytime moving on him. I did put a pain reliefer in my chest and Back area and it helped Just cracks sound ahahah Our mind is our worst enemie!
I had mid and left sided chest pain one time in my 30’s. Came on suddenly and stopped me in my tracks. I was doubled over and short of breath. In ED heart rate was 160’s with high BP and low O2. They admitted me for observation and the Cardiologist told me I was wasting his time and that people in their 30’s don’t have heart issues. He said next time don’t come to the ED and waste his time that I was taking from patients that actually needed him. Well I didn’t have a cardiac thing but within 2 days I hav swollen nodes in both armpits with armpit pain. Swollen glands in my neck. And broke out in a rash from head to toe. What I had was a virus that started out as chest pain. I was sick for two weeks. I was thankful it wasn’t cardiac but I will never forget his rude words and made it like I was faking.
I suffered a massive heart attack at age 36. Full blockage of my LAD , aka widowmaker. I looked healthy. I had just been given a clean bill of health by a cardiologist only two weeks before it occurred. My Dr was skeptical of my complaints /symptoms being serious but he sent me to the cardiologist. If you're ever in that position again, never hesitate going to the ER and do forget the nonsense that ER doctor told you.
Zen Mind I won’t. I’m a nurse and have coded people that have had heart attacks. It just really ticked me off a cardiologist acted like that. Someone could have taken his words and not taken precautions in the future and died. And it would be on his hands. I am so very glad you made it through!!
I've had extreme right side chest pain for 11 years ever since my riding mower flipped over and threw me off backwards on a hill and i hit on my back right side ribs and landed on my back with the mower coming down on top of me but i managed to use my legs to throw the mower off to my right side while on my back, and my doctor then who is retired now said not to worry about it just keep an eye out on it. I've been to several doctors since then all of whom contract under the same group in my town because the doctors here can't practice and send their patients to the only hospital there , and every one of the doctors after i got hurt and after my primary dr. Didn't treat it. They will not even treat this with any meds or surgery. And it's been living hell to live with. Thanks for this video Dr.Berry. i will try to find someone outside this crazy town to help me. So far you mentioned 4 things I've been aware of after i researched this. Have a nice day.
I have COPD...I get like splits of fast heart beats....beats in my throat....and my arms go lame-ish....on oxygen.....take CARLOC 6.5..AND SPIRACTIN...FOR HEART. ..Physisian put me on these....never saw a Pulmologist....I was 10 days in hospital...very short breathed.....can u help me
I've had pleurisy before..It was quite painful..Took the DR a week to diagnose it then another 4 weeks of antibiotics to make it better...4 weeks of having to sleep sitting up a bit wasn't that good either but i couldn't lie down with the pain :( Thank you for all your videos too, they have become quite helpful :)
Yes Panic attacks can definitely make you think your having a heart attack. I was being told my chest pain was from panic until I suffered a heart attack. Didn't know I had an heart attack because I had no signs. I felt like someone was pushing my head down into my body. Women sometimes don't have typical symptoms like a man.
Yeah, I was 49 when I had a heart attack. NO pain whatsoever. I just couldn't get my breath when walking. I figured that I was just out of shape. I finally went to a clinic five days later and was rushed to the hospital. I watched the monitor as the Doc slid the catheter through my arteries to place 3 stents. He said that I'd farted around too long and the backside of my heart was dead. Watching him work and asking him all kinds of questions was pretty cool, though.
I've had pericarditis before and it really made me think I was having a heart attack. Of course the anxiety of thinking I was having a heart attack drove up my blood pressure. I never had dizziness or shortness of breath, but the BP was so high I called EMS.
I have cancer of the lungs nodules had 8 goes of radiation treatment it’s gone but another appeared but I getting pains on the right side under arm pits going down right down to me elbow very painful is this to do with my cancer my cancer is on the right side a s well waiting to go see doctor any advice please 🙏
Im a 12 year old boy and it’s past mid night and honestly I thought o was having something severe but I’m pretty sure it’s just muscle strain from Pe the other day but I actually thought it was something bad so I have been doing research cause my biggest fear is dying and with chest pain I don’t know wht it is so I didn’t want to sleep without knowing why it hurt but found this vid and I feel safe now
1. K. 2. K 3. K 4. Ok 5. K 6. 7. K 8. K 9. K 10. K 11. K 12. K My sharp little pains are just growing pains then. That's what Mum used to say. Cheers Dr
I’m having chest pain on my right side. Thanks yo your video, I think it’s from trauma since I was using a pressure washer to clean my area rug yesterday. It was heavy once wet & I struggled to pull it. Without this video I would’ve thought it was linked to a panic or heart attack. Thanks doctor!
Yak! I used to suffer from acid reflux. Tums EVERY night before bed. Could only sleep on my left side. Went carnivore. No more acid reflux. No more a bunch of other issues too!
What Happens when you just randomly get scared and it just give you like a pain in the right side of your chest for like at least for like a second and then it’s gone like that happens to me whenever I’m scared but then my hearts like on my left side it makes me like really confused?
Yes! I’ve been to the ER 4 times this year thinking I’m having a heart attack and once the ekg & blood comes back normal the dr always tells me I’m having esophagus spasms because of my gerd or IBS😖
Panic attacks are scary as hell! Costochondritis is so painful you can't move your body to look to the left or right without it feeling like your sternum is ripping open. Not FUN.
My only question is that the pain goes away if I lay on my back. Problem with laying on my back is I have post-nasal drip. I sleep with elevated pillows as well. Thank you Dr. Berry.
my chest pain switches sides , goes and comes back , dosent last long only a couple secs but somtimes it comes back in hours somtimes it comes back fast then fast again what can it be? i just really need to know this edit: im going doctors tomorrow ive had it for days but my parents dident start noticing what it could be till now but its to late so tomorrow or the next day after tomorrow i will get it checked i had to convince my parents by showing them video's ill edit this when i find what it is just in case enybody else is experimenting this so u know what it is!
hubby had sudden onset pain in his lower abdomen....waited a couple of days...it was his gall bladder....he had a HUGE stone ......and...gangrene ....DON"T ignore pain!
I Thank my maker for letting me make it thru my pulmonary embolism last year ❤ what your describing was true for me , thank you Dr. Berry i am sharing this to many of my people. Never stop your quest for the truth.🐂
i have pain in my both chest which was close to my armpits but the pain is not so light or not so sharp ,my ecg reports ,xray of my lungs all are normal im very worried about it 🥺
❤❤ My 5mg of high blood pressure pill was bumped up to 10mg pill ..Ever since I started this new dose haven't been feeling well plus I've been having right upper chest pain off and on...
Hello Sir really appreciating video. I got all tests x-ray, endoscopy and CT-SCAN every report was good normal. But since last year July from right side of chest from one triggered point place pain started and then it travels up to my throat thyroid glands. TIGHTENING SWELLING PAINING RIGHT SIDE OF MY UPPER CHEST. sometimes this pain in middle sometimes it's travel left side of my upper chest.
I don't have shortening of breath problem, I don't have cough, I don't have asthma. Suddenly in a day I feel this pain mostly right side of chest. I don't know how to get rid of it. It's a muscle infection? It's not let me to do work. Make me weak and I go in depression. My anxiety more increase due to this pain swelling tightening.
pain bcoz of thick mucus. @ top right side of chest, When 1, swallow,2, sneeze,3, cough 4, lying down, always. Not @ breathing. so pleased when drink Very Hot water, when swallow hot food
I had RT-sided chest pain over the weekend nothing I took lessened the pain but deep breaths did not aggravate it; no short of breath. Got into my doc first thing Mon morning. Turns out I have shingles!! Never suspected that but finally getting some relief from the pain. I really enjoy your channel. Lots of helpful info for this Keto newbie. Thank you!
Can't it also be a tumor?! I only smoked a few cigars and never again like 25 years ago and now I'm 48. No coughing is happening or shortness of breath but people can get it even if they never smoked. I did 15 1-arm pushups with my right arm a week or a couple of weeks ago and now there's pain and it is in a point like RIGHT THERE kind of thing so costochondritis?
When I was 19 I was in a car wreck and broke my right collar bone and all the cartilage between my ribs and sternum. I was squashed like an accordion. My ribs were wrapped and I had a harness type brace. Now I’m in my 50s and I quite often revisit that pain when I work in the garden or move furniture. I don’t know if it’s arthritis or what but I can definitely make it flare up for a few days. Not all chest pain is your heart that’s for sure!
im having pain lower side right chest while streching ...I don't have any difficulty in breathing ..no vomiting and coughing its not a pinch type of pain or over ribs muscle but from internally I observed while streching it's feel paining like my lungs touching ribs bone and pressing causing pain ...I don't know what it ...but it's about 6-7 days ...
it happened to me like every days, like something stuck right side of my chest then starts moving again it so hurts. Its only start moving again when i inhale
In April, I began having a pleurisy type pain in my upper-left shoulder blade. The pain moved to the front of my chest. I got it checked out and it wasn't a heart attack - but it was during the UK pandemic peak and no further tests were done. A day later, I could hardly breathe, the chest tightness felt like a vice crushing the breath out of me. I was also getting severe waves of body chills and I literally sat up for three nights, just focusing on breathing. I wondered about the Wuhan plague, but I didn't have a cough nor a high temperature. I started Walking and breathing - incorporated with Keto and intermittent fasting. I've shed 42 pounds So far and things appear to have improved - though I still get some chest discomfort - and a lot of unexplained burping. This excellent channel is very helpful in pointing us in the right direction.
@@bobobrien8968 I seriously considered my gallbladder, because many symptoms pointed in that direction and I had spent years following fad low fat diets. However, a scan of my gallbladder proved negative - apart from a polyp detected on the tube leaving it. The question is, could a polyp cause such symptoms. The upper left shoulder blade pain comes and goes and it comes less frequently. So I can only hope that keto and fasting is slowly healing things. Update. My weight loss ended at 103 pounds lost, so I'm delighted to have shed one third of my body weight.
Sir i had a right chest pain after having chilled soda... But its lasting now its been 8 days. My doc said nothing to worry and gave menu tab and megaquest for 15 days. Still it is persisting so i took an ecg. Its saying sinus arythmia and abnormality in T(2,3 l, aVF). Iam confused.. Can u suggest what actually is causing this?
@SmokingHotNeedles Had the same thing. It was in the right side but worse in the back area. Hit me suddenly about half hour after dinner. They found gallstones.
Pnuemothorax , that was my left lung , would my right one hurt years later ?( Maybe acid reflex , i drink alot of can,s of pepsi) , maybe it,s pleurisy. I dont know , who cares im going to bed , maybe ill wake up tommorow , maybe i wont 😂
My chest has been hurting for 3 months now and it’s kinda on the right side I feel lump in the middle of my chest it only hurts then I move my neck to right side or when I lift my arm I think it’s pulled muscle but the lump has been getting bigger over a 3 month period it feels hard like bone rib or something I’ve been to the doctor but they say they don’t see any thing I’m 32 and the pain won’t go away
Man that sucks I been having chest pain on the middle of my chest and the left side right in my heart and the anxiety is killing me been to the cardiologist and they stilll don’t know what’s wrong
I get some sharp pain in the right side when I exercise intensely (jumping rope for instance). Only during the exercise. Is that normal? Heart disease runs in my family, in the men. I am a woman in my 40’s and I’m quite fit.
Just so you know, I've had three pulmonary emboli and never had any pain, just shortness of breath. That might be because they weren't caused by disease, but by compression that didn't agree with me.
@@emiliomartinez7556 I was never scared. In addition to everything else, I had one near-death experience and knew I wasn't going. I enjoyed not telling the doctors why I kept giggling. They thought I was nuts but, I'd been given the choice to stay or go and I chose to stay. From then on, nothing they came up with scared me because even if I'd died, I knew it was ok there.
Today i went to school and everything went fine until i went home. I had chest pain on my right side when i breath in. At some point it got worse by just breathing. But if i lay on my belly the pain subsides and goes away. Until i stand up or change position. What id this??? This is the first time this happend
I'm having pain in my right chest, right arm (lower arm) it hurts when i breathe deeper but it didn't hurt when i'm breathing normally and i'm not in difficulty with breathing and i'm not sweating or something, i don't feel nausea and when i lay down my right side is pretty hurt (minimal) when i position on right side it hurts but when i position in left side, it's not. Can someone tell me if this is an muscle strain or it's an sign of heart attack? i'm a teenager and i don't smoke or drink any alcohol
I don't know if it's a panic attack but I've been having panic attack for long but I've never felt it yesterday and today it hit very hard is it because of panic attack someone tell me
I am a woman, and I have chest pain on the right side like someone cut with a knife, especially when I carry weight, during a walk, and even during sleeping. Is it serious?
I woke up this morning and my right side of my chest hurts lower ribs, thought it might a muscle thing but when I take a deep breath it hurts like crazy , and idk what it is
Before I was not watching this video. I had right side chest pain And when I was About to watch this I did not have write side chest pain is that's normal
Awsome video like always. Full carnivore for 2 weeks and I have a question for my fellow carnivors. Is pork fatty enough like beef? I'd like pork chop/rib more often in my life.
I love cross referencing Dr. Berry with Dr. Berg. Dr. Berg would approach this in a different way. Neither are definitivly right or wrong but best to hear from both sides I think. And I'll change that a little, both are right because everything they say has worked for me. Just slightly different approaches.
@@itsme6591 why? By Dr. Berry's own words, most doctors know little to nothing about nutrition. We the people in this world study more than most doctors. Dr. Berry is of the same mindset and crosses over into both patient and provider worlds. So does Dr. Berry know more about nutrition just because he's a family physician? By his own words "no". Keep an open mind, that's what got you here in the first place 😉
