Thought I had a heart attack today
 
Turned out it is just pleurisy. Sorry guys, Slakjaw LIVES!

This is really quite painful though...

Exhale deeply, move, like holding your arms above your head, resume normal breathing.

Hurts like a mofo, don't it?

Did the doc put you on anything?

Bluesky, yea it hurts like a mofe! He gave me vicodin to help.

Thanks Tobra. That actually helps quite a bit.

Had it when I was a senior in High School. I thought my heart was tearing apart with every breath I took. Very painful. Couple of motrin for a few days and I was fine. Doc thinks I got it from too much stress.

Your lungs are essentially a bag inside of a bag. You get a little fold in one of those bags and it is very similar to what an ice pick between your ribs would feel like.
