strange pain once a month

so for the 2nd time, about 5 days b4 my period, i get what feels like heartburn or stabbing pain right between my chest. it hrts when i breath and i feel pressure and it hurts.

I went running to my surgeon yesterday cuz i was scared.

Fluids go down just fine, and and i only eat 1 meald a day and thats the night b4.

Soooooo my surgeon said right off the bat its NOT my band, since things can pass through thats a def sign it not the band. he gave me a xray and i swalloed stuff and saw everything was fine, he actully said i could use a fill, im at 7cc and im wide open ( great)

BUT what i can figure out is this. I had bought new bras at Lany Braynt, since then that is when it started. Now us ladies know Layne Bryant does not sell bras, they sell BOULDER HOLDERS LOL , but they have a wiwde band across the middle, AND when i take my bra off, about 20 mins later I am FINE????? i am assume that from my pms my boobsswell, well i know they do, but maybe the swelling of the boobs mixedwith a tighter big banded bra over my band????

ANYBODY ELSE HAVE THIS??? so far it seems i have the 1% of things that never happen to people happen to me lol

ANYBODY ELSE????? Id love to hear feedback PLEASE :huh:

Frist off, you need to eat more than once a day. Your body needs the protein in order to loose good. I have swelling every month with pms. My band also gets tighter during this time put I know after a few days it will loosen back up. I would try a different bra, maybe without under-wire during this time and see if it helps.

It maybe the wire in the bra. I can't wear underwire bras. The wire sits right on top of where my port is. I kept getting strange pains when I wore my bra, when I took it off it was fine. I mentioned it to the Dr. and he said it's your bra. So I don't wear underwire bras anymore. Which is very hard to find.

Lane Bryant is not the best place to buy a bra. Go to Leggs and get measured and you can buy a good bra that fits for the same price. Good luck!
