Lynne,
Heart pain can make you throw up - it's called the vagal response - PLEASE go see the doctor on Monday and if you have the pain again - PLEASE go to the ER. Hopefully, it was just something you ate, but it might be your heart!

Texting her now Gayle...

Gayle, thats kind of why it did scare me a little, i remember when mom had her's, only her's was more in her arm, i don't remember her throwing up though.
I will go to the ER if i have another episode of it though, i promise.

Thanks Janet for texting me and you to Gayle for giving me this info. I hate going to the dr though. hopefully it was just the gurd or something i ate.

It's always better to go to the ER and find out it is GERD, than to have a heart attack and not go to the ER. I know you will go if you have the pain again! Remember too, that women often have heart pain in their back or shoulder blade, and even up in the jaw. I know you mentioned that you knew women's symptoms are often different than mens, which is typically in the chest and down the left arm. So, pay attention, young lady, and get to the ER if you have ANY more pain in the upper chest, back, jaw area!

HMMM..... maybe you ARE having heart pain in your leg! LOL! Hope you find out what is causing it! And yes, I can completely understand why you have had so many health problems in the last couple of years. You've been to hell and back!

Hmmm never heard of anyone having it in their leg before, but i guess anything is possible.
I did look up the symptoms of a blood clot but they didn't match mine.

If i am standing at the kitchen sink with no weight on that leg it just kill's me, also just sitting on the couch either with my leg up or down, it can be fine for a while and then just out of the blue it will start hurting, also walking bothers it.
So what ya say doc LOL

I don't think I have a clue on this one! Where does it hurt? Is it shooting? or is it in one place? It's not your sciatic nerve is it - starts in butt and goes down your leg? Probably not, you've had back issues, and would likely know what sciatica feels like.

Hmmmm.... I dunno!

started out in my upper thigh and buttock area, but has now moved down to mainly my calf area. Don't really think it's my back this time.

I know just suck it up and go to my dr right LOL

That is strange - it sounds like something that runs from the upper leg to the lower leg, like a nerve. Are you having any weakness in the leg? Or only pain?

I must say that I am NOT one to go to the doctor - except if I thought I was having heart pain - I'd be there in a flash! LOL! But, yes, you should go back to the doc and get that MRI.

I have been to the dr more in the past 2 yrs than i have my whole entire life (except when i was pregnant).

I will go have the MRI if it continues, now i will leave you alone and let you relax.

Thanks again for your concern and thoughts.
Good night.

Lynne, I hope the rest of your weekend is pleasant and relaxing. Enjoy!
