I have been experiencing a  shortness of breath when walking up hills or even stairs,  followed by a pain in my chest and a pain under my shoulder blade. I have had all the heart tests going, 3 chest xrays and lung function tests, which I passed with flying colours. I have had numerous blood tests, including a full blood count,which have come back clear. My Dr has no idea what is wrong but I am getting increasingly concerned as this has been going on for 8 months with no improvement. I am generally in good health, with walking, cycling and swimming as my hobbies, but I am unable to do these anymore. Walking on the flat is ok, but any slight incline and the pain starts and I become breathless. Any Suggestions?

Ever figure this out? I'm in the same boat

I have a pain in my upper chest to bottom of throat and shoulder blades hurt when I breathe. I am unable to do the things I did before because I get exhausted and lose my breath. Each breath hurts. Bending down is a killer. My heart was checked, my lungs were checked and no obvious problem. What about something in between the heart and lungs?? My jaw also hurts. The heart and lung doctors are both scratching their heads.
