asked

I've been experiencing sharp, periodic chest pain on my left side above my heart. The pain lasts only a few seconds and is not constant but occurs periodically throughout the day. I'm a 24-year-old female, 5'2'' and weigh 206 lbs. My cholesterol was slightly high at 202 during a physical earlier this year. I've started cutting out caffeine and don't eat much meat. The pain doesn't worsen with breathing and isn't affected by pressing on my chest. What could be causing this and is there anything I should do?
