    hi Zohra, i had BMX in aug. 2013 and i still feel pain and tightness.  i saw my oncologist on tuesday and he isn't concerned.  mine is actually worse when i eat too much salt and the bloating pushes on my chest.

    i think it is always good to check with the doctor to be sure but since it is late and not many people around i wanted to let you know that it isn't always something to worry about. i hope it eases soon or that the doctor gives you some answers.  take care.
