Chest pain/discomfort

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I'm Ted from Illinois; IPF, Sleep Apnea , dx April 2009. When exercising/fast walking I experience

chest pain/discomfort in the area of the sternum. Cardiologist says it isn't my heart, pulmonologoist says it isn't fibrosis but suggests it maybe acid reflux. Taking Prilosec OTC for acid reflux but the pain is still there. It is basicaly the same pain I felt immediately after the stent implant. I know of one other person who has had the same experience. Any of you have words of wisdom?\

Hi Ted, If I don't take prilosec faithfully I do have pretty uncomfortable chest pain right at the sternum.But If I am good and take it everyday the pain is pretty much gone. I can't miss a dose r I pay for it. Love and Prayers, Peggy IPF 2004, FloridaWorry looks around, Sorry looks back, Faith looks up. Hi, I'm Ted from Illinois; IPF, Sleep Apnea , dx April 2009.
