I have a new symptom that popped up. I have throbbing ears and throbbing below them, ( in the lymph node area )which I would assume is allergies, since I have problems. But I have a pain in my collarbone area that comes and goes. It it now has became more frequent. It's on the left side (otherwise I wouldn't be so worried). It is a sharp pain and the area seems to be tender to the touch. Motion or exercise doesn't seem to make a difference. ( I read about shoulder pain when you have a heart attack, but I've had so many EKG's, an echo cardiogram and stress test and my cholesterol is excellent.) Anyone else have something similar?

Are the lymph nodes swollen? They can become painful if they are swollen. Especially if you keep touching the, wink.gif

Also, you may have a pinched nerve in your neck and the pain may be radiating to that area. Just a thought.

They don't seem to be swollen, but they are tender. I did see on the web that there are lymph nodes in the upper chest area also. I may have to make a trip to the chiropractor & let him "work me over" Thanks for the response. Sometimes I just need reassurance that my heart is fine and all this "stuff" is normal for peri!!!!

Doggiewoggie....love your name.

If the lymph nodes are sore you probably have an infection. Especially if you are having ear problems. You may need an antibiotic.

Call you doc. They may be able to prescribe something over the phone or can tell you whether you should come in.
