If your heart is feeling under the weather, pinching, squeezing, chest pain, whatever it may be, having difficulty breathing like you feel like you need to try to breathe and the air is not readily available, go to the Emergency room.
It may feel like you're over reacting, but with matters of the heart, you need to go to the Emergency room. You will probably get a blood test taken, and then another one a little while later to see what your heart is doing, you may get a chest X-ray, you may have additional testing done. There are medications that can help you in ways you are unaware of.
County hospitals have Emergency Medi cal where if you go into the Emergency room, you get emergency medi cal coverage for one month. From the emergency coverage, you get the phone numbers, etc. to get health insurance from then on if you don't already have it. Kaiser Permanente also has emergency medi cal. When you're being discharged from the ER is where you request emergency medi cal at Kaiser Permanente.
If you're feeling any heart discomfort that's causing you to worry, go into the ER. "Just incase you have forgotten today: You matter. You are loved. You are worthy. You are magical. -Unknown" and you might just be someone's whole world.
