My question is how do you figure out what chest pain is with RSD, which is with TOS, and which is with heart problems?

These past two weeks I have been diagnosed with Metabolic Syndrome, IBS, and just got my blood work back that my cholestral is way too high. I see my Dr. Wed and he says we have to decide what to do about these things. I did gain 13 lbs in the past 8 months. I honestly chalked up the start of this to Lyrica.

I have lost 3 of those lbs. and am working on getting rid of the rest. It is in the middle that I have gained it.

Yesterday I started having chest pain and I chalked it up to my insurance company refusing to pay for my Prevacid pill instead of the kind you chew. I have never been able to take anything but Prevacid that worked for my stomach issues.

My Dr. wanted me to go to the hospital tonight but I have the boys, the roads are horrible and we are suppose to get 3 to 4 more inches of snow and I just don't want to go.

It's just so confusing to not know what is causing what here and was wondering if any of you have wondered about the chest pain cause before. I know I have heard a lot of you say you have chest pain.

Thanks for the help.
