I need a nurses advice. I feel like I have something stepping on my chest. When I breathe in it hurts even worse and it goes up my throat. Does anybody know what could be wrong with me? It just started today and it is gettin worse as time goes on. Any help would be appreciated.

Well the pain has gotten worse again as the day goes on. I took 3 Advil before I went to bed. I would love to go to the ER but I have no insurance!

You really need to get checked out. The ER has to treat you, can't turn you away for no insurance. Or you could go to an urgent care, charges might be less there, but you need some medical treatment.

Rochester is a big city, surely there's an ER that will treat you without insurance. You are having symptoms of a heart attack that needs to be ruled out. Could be musculoskelatal, could be GI, or could be cardiac. You need an ER and STAT.

Good luck and keep in touch.

Well I live in Arizona but now it is more in my throat and it kinda feels like asthma-bronchitis. I am trying to avoid the doctor because of the money issue.
