Dear Christians friends and acquaintances, I have been feeling this uncomfortable feeling of the chest and like soreness or tenderness of the chest and also a change in appetite like feeling like I have to eat really healthy food and nausea at times and I really feel it's because of having too little exercise for long-term because I would feel better after I exercise but if I don't continue on the next day I will feel worse and the soreness/tenderness I will feel is worse and a bad feeling of being too unexercised. I can exercise a lot and have a lot of energy when I walk once a week on the weekend with my family, I can walk for 3-4 hours without sitting down but just bringing my water in thermal cup and it motivates me because I'm excited outside but at the home area, I would like prayer on having the energy and motivation to start exercising everyday when I should be and not aggravating my body continuously and getting sick further, but to "definitely" heal and not "lose" on this battle of needing to exercise and "not" doing it! That God will surely help me! I didn't exercise around outside the home by myself because of feeling not 100% safe but when I walk as a group I feel safe enough but either way, I still have to exercise about 1 and half hr or 2 hrs/day. I can do it but I have trouble getting out of my bed and starting and doing the same thing on the machine (continuing), but once I start it is "easier" to continue. I have trouble getting out of bed lying down and energy and lack of motivation because of a medication I'm still on so I really need something to help me! Thank you lots everyone who prays for me! You know who u r! I don't know what is causing these symptoms and am scared of it. I don't have any lump but I don't know if it's cancer starting up or heart issue or it could be because I've been lying down a lot that the muscles are clamped and not circulating and losing its integrity and needs to be toned. Thanks for reading and praying anyway. God bless.

Is this soreness occurring after strenuous exercise? Is it in the area just below the collar bone/s? Is the pain radiating anywhere, like into the shoulders, arms, etc?

Praying for you❤️
Not after exercise. I did too little exercise for long-term. I didn't make many friends because of having SAD and only met one close friend who wasn't really a good friend and is now living too far and is also busy with her own life now so I had no friends to go out with on most days and also my medication makes me feel tired and unmotivated in that if it's not fun, I don't feel like doing it but now because of this I should have a motivating factor to do it and it's still ok to do and I should wake up early enough to go to my group walks. It's around below the breast bone in the centre-ish and not radiating, just this soreness or tenderness feeling like a tiny bit stingy and it's an uncomfortable chest feeling like that. Oh well, whatever God wants me to go through there's always a reason. I exercised too little for about 5-10 yrs. My sister had surgery once in her body because they weren't sure if her cyst was cancerous, but after the surgery it came back and another doctor said this kind of thing will always come back and you don't need to do surgery. The doctor didn't feel any lump when checking me but I will be doing bloodwork, ultrasound and mammogram to be sure. Thank you so much.

Oh well, whatever God wants me to go through there's always a reason. I exercised too little for about 5-10 yrs. My sister had surgery once inside her body because they weren't sure if her cyst was cancerous, but after the surgery it came back and another doctor said this kind of thing will always come back and you don't need to do surgery. The doctor didn't feel any lump when checking me but I will be doing bloodwork, ultrasound and mammogram to be sure. Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
Stress can cause a condition called costochondritis or Tietze syndrome. If it's a tenderness in the center (like the sternum area) that may be the issue.
Praying still.❤️

Idk if this helps or not @thelord's_pearl hope you are doing better, reading is a good way to find relief from stressful situations, this is the fouth time of seeing this from 8-11 in the troubles that were experienced in asia.

Praise to the God of All Comfort​

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 5 For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. 6 If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7 And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.

8 We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters,[a] about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. 10 He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, 11 as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many.

Keep trusting in God, who raises the dead.

Start exercising slowly. You don't want to do too much right off. Walking is a great aerobic exercise.

Drink lots of spring water too.
And eat well and healthy

Holding you in my prayers.

Thanks for all the love and care. TLHKAJ, wow, interesting I never heard of these diseases before but I don't think it's either one of these that I'm experiencing as I haven't felt much stress anymore some time this year. The symptoms I'm experiencing are similar to symptoms I have had every time I exercise too little and this has been long-term. I don't know what the diagnosis will be but something positive to say is that I started to take drops of vitamin D because I heard that it helps prevent cancer and it actually made me feel better (the some nausea but not really so far with the stingy chest in the centre-ish on the right and left side and actually can be higher up to under the collar bone or like half-way up the neck with aversion to animal and plant fat and fried food) but not totally ok so far but I felt after the drops of vitamin D, I also felt this uncomfortable chest feeling to be tolerable. I only started to exercise enough for 6 days in a row now so I don't expect something I've done continuously for like 10 yrs to go away right away just because I only started to exercise enough.@amadeus, try taking 5 drops of vitamin D everyday and see if you feel better too! I have now been eating curry powder, turmeric, garlic powder, dark chocolate today and organic blueberries with no improvement even though I know these are healthy, but the vitamin D made me feel better.

I've heard that vitamin D3,not the same as vitamin D, helps with absorption of most any supplements we take with it.

I know from personal experience that lessening the intake of processed sugars helps in feeling better too.

My best friend had a blood test to find out what foods they may be allergic to. They aspire to moving from the marathons they've participated in for years. Next stop, Iron Man.

I love all the foods that are likely bad for me, so I didn't follow their plan.

But, they have made great strides in their workout regimine now that they avoid gluten and other things that they're allergic to.

Praying for you! Keep your chin up and look for ways to motivate yourself to exercise. It will lower your blood pressure which is quite healthy, I just get out for walks and it keep my BP down quite a bit. Cheers.

Sorry, yes it's vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), you can get 1000 IU and take about 3-5 drops, depending on how you feel and if you live in a country where the summer sun seasons are short so winter you can take a higher dose like 5 drops and summer you can take 3-4 drops and also look for a good healthier brand @amadeus. I hope that you'll find that eating healthier/healthy is great to eat too and that you'll have a better life, living healthy and not suffering from disease because your body will always try to keep finding and asking for foods that give nutrition and help it thrive happily. God bless.

Sorry actually you should take only about 2 drops of 1000 IU in the summer and 3 drops of 1000 IU in the winter if you live in a country where you have a short or relatively short summer of sun and a long or longer winter. If you take too much vitamin D3 it will do the opposite and suppress your immune system. I got my blood work results and everything is pretty good or good except my liver enzymes are a bit elevated because of the anti-psychotic medication I'm still on.

My family doctor told me that in respects to the ultrasound and mammogram I did, I have a nodule on the left side of the breast about 5mm but she said she thinks it should be benign but is not 100% so she referred me to I think it's a specialist she was talking about to check it further. I feel this is due to living a sedentary life as I explained for the last ten yrs but it could be something I'm consuming. I will definitely look into everything including continuing to get off my psychiatric medications I've been on for about 10 yrs now due to issues and then see if it's benign, if it will shrink away on its own. Thank you everyone for the heartfelt prayers and thanks @Lambano and others who still put "likes" on my Daily Exercise Log. Let's take the challenge! thread and stuff <3
