I sometimes get chest pain. Like a dagger in my ribs. Also a wicked pain in my breast. I'm 17 and a female. My nose is also always bleeding. I have fluctuating weights and find it hard to loose weight. Im also alqays thirsty. I dont know if this could be my imagination but the pains are real and I was wondering if they are symptoms of something
adviceman49 answered Friday January 24 2014, 11:50 am: Chest Pains are always scary. Most of the time they turn out to be nothing more than muscle pain. Problem is that diagnoses can only be made in the doctors office, a hospital or by a paramedic using a Lifepak. The paramedic by law cannot diagnose but only treat what they see and the symptoms you report.
The chest pains and the stabbing pain in the ribs are separate symptoms but could be cause related. The bloody nose is a separate symptom and not easily related to the chest pains but can be if other things are present. Being thirsty generally is not related to the chest pain.
My suggestion is to see a doctor, NOW. If you are still suffering the pains in the chest and bleeding from the nose it would be appropriate to call 911 and ask for a paramedic ambulance.
Should the Medic suggest you go to the hospital with them. I would suggest you do so, it is not so unusual today to find young people with heart problems. I can't and I am not saying that is what your problem is though you really need to find out. At your age you do not need parental permission to call 911.

Drs can get more information from urine and blood tests that show lots more information. If you really want to ask for advice online, your best bet is an online doctor advice site, that while they wont make a diagnosis, will give you some things possibly to try or look for. Theses site shave cropped up and become popular with the current times being that many folk no longer have health insurance and can't afford to pay for even a walk in clinic. Here is one such site, there are many others if you look for doctor /m.d. advice online
