laura_seabrookI don't seem to have that pain in the chest that I had yesterday. I tried sleeping in a different position last night and this morning woke up without it.
I have had such pains before (both times it felt like someone was ramming a large cion into my skin), and been carted off to hospital twice in an Ambulance because it might have been a heart attack. But on both occasions I had tests and it wasn't.
After a trip to my G.P. he suggested that it was a combination of stress and bad posture. Continually slouching or cramped in a sitting posture and stretching the wrong way (while being worried about stuff) will do it.
In the mornings I've been checking on memberships of a Facebook group I help manage, and have been perched on a thick cushion on the floor using a keyboard sitting on an upturned box while looking at both TV and a monitor above a sensible eye-line. That being the case I might start checking on such things at the END of the day in an actual seat on one of the other computers.
