Chest twinges
5 Answers
I keep getting sharp twingey pains in my upper chest- sternum area when I move. They aren't there if I am still but can come on suddenly if I twist, bend or move even slightly. I was worried about them and NHS direct sent me an ambulance and the ECG was fine and normal. This was a week ago and I still get these pains. Any idea what they could be? I will go to the Doc as soon as I can get an appointment, but wondered if anyone else had heard of this?

The fact that your ECG was fine is good but still worth seeing your doctor to get it checked out.
