I'm a female, 20 years old who never smokes or drinks alcohol.
Last year I was having pain in my chest 4-6 times over a period of a few months that my doctor wrote off as a "muscle strain".
Last week, it started again. I had a pain in my chest, nothing else (other than fear) that went away after I used the toilet (#1 and #2). The pain remained and didn't go away until I went to the toilet (#2) again and I felt better.
I feel fine in myself and nothing else hurts or feels bad other than my chest. I know I'm not having a heart attack, but it still worries me.
It's only happened twice in the past two weeks but each time it happens, even once the pain has passed, I feel nervous and uneasy the rest of the day in case it comes back.

it sounds like backed up gas pressure. sometimes when i have been holding my pee for a while and finaly get to go to the bathroom. i sit down and start to go and all the blood starts rushing to my head. i think it is because i use my PC muscle to hold the pee back and once i let it relax all the blood starts to rush back up to my body. its wierd i know.

Wow, I would never have put that with this. I've been googling (and freaking out) all afternoon and I read that the pain could have nothing to do with my chest, but the gas preasure sounds interesting.

sometimes i have real sharp intestinal pains up high that barely allow me to breath. turns out my doctor said it was backed up gas. it didn't feel like gas. i didn't have to fart, or #2. it only happens to me every now and then.

Having a bowel movement involves using the vagus muscles, which actually helps relieve your heart. Think of it as you were having a muscle cramp in your heart and by having the bowel movement, you "worked it out".

I used to have bad acid reflux and gas backups. Went to several gastro doctors but all they do is prescribe pill to make money. I did my research and found out that dairy was the reason for my acid reflux. I gave up dairy, red meat and within a year I was cured.
