One positive from last night's debacle in Pittsburgh was it distracted me from a very odd and disturbing pain I have had for 2 days in my chest, just to the right of my breastbone, almost feeling like a tiny hand under my rib squeezing something in there. It hurt to exhale, then changed the next day to hurting when I would inhale. Lying on my right side was very painful but I could sleep lying flat on my back or on my left side. Leaning forward made the pain much worse. It hurts to laugh, too. I didn't laugh much last night, though.
I am off to the cancer center shortly, with a very early 7:45 am start. I am definitely telling the doc or nurse, whomever I see today, about my chest pain. Maybe they will x-ray me, who knows?
