over the last few weeks I have had a weird feeling above my left pec at the top closer to my sternum. It comes and goes and is not a pain but just a weird ache. I have had panic attacks in the past which were more sharpe. My breathing is not really affected. I recently quit smoking due to this which I had wanted to do anyway. I have had to stop doing cardio on occassion for fear of something going wrong or feeling light headed. Other times I can do intense cardio with no problems. Without insurance I dont want a useless er trip but am also a little concerned
