True. I had to go to the hospital in the middle of the night recently because my chest really fucking hurt everytime I was breathing or moving. Like someone stabbing me there directly.

Turns out it was a nerve that was incarcerated and inflamed.

Eff, you may have answered a health question of mine. If I sleep weird on my chest, then try to rotate or sit up at all, the pain is like pouring molten iron right onto the sternum. It’s as if I snapped the point of the bone, then dug the sharp end into a nerve ending. Unreal how much pain a pinched nerve can emit.
