Hi there, did you have any pain anywhere else. I had a similar episode with pain going up to my jaw. This came on the same week end I was told I was in remission, and my treatment complete, AC rads CMF, it wasn't a heart attack it was the sack the heart sits in contracting like cling wrap causing the pain.(pericarditus) My pain was also relieved with meds and I was kept in hospital for 3 days with an anti biotic Keflex, tests on the heart later said it was fine. Do mention it to your onc, but if yours is like mine they only know oncology, I complained to him about my shoulder pain and he said it was probably arthritus, he knew I had fell but it wasn's detected until month's later, after the scare I thought I must have bone mets, I had a bone scan to rule this out, it was discovered later I had fractured my shoulder and it had gone untreated for months. My left ventricle has always been in the high 50%-61% and I have been on Herceptin for over 2 years, triple dose every 3 weeks. This is just another possibility.
Hugs Lyn
