Another person, 66-year-old Susan Madero from Los Angeles, said she had “the sensation of a very large person sitting on her chest.” She felt a shortness of breath and a tightening in her ribs. Moreover, Susan also experienced pain in her right shoulder, her arm, her neck, and up her jaw.

“If you have any of these signs and are concerned, call your physician or healthcare provider,” Dr. Tamis-Holland said.
