I've had chest pain for about 2hrs. off/on and I asked my mom if it was my lungs or heart she said heart. (It's slight shocks I get occassionally that pass but tonight they aren't passing.) I said hopefully it's not the heart since I could die of a heart attack and not wake up. She said don't say that and I was too young for that (I'm 23). So fellow Aspies and others are you blunt (I guess you could call it honesty but it's not neccasarily about being honest but more "telling it as you see it etc." Another experience was when my sister fell being paralyzed was the first thought that crossed mind

Not blunt, but I will be straightforward and gentle with people.

Definitely. I don't appreciate when people "beat around the bush" and so I don't either. Just say what you mean!

Well...probably more like...sometimes. Not always but sometimes I am more blunt than the people around me. I don't like to be blunt all the time.

I am to a point... I don't say what I'm thinking if I know it'll make me look like an as*hole. (: Unless they want my true opinion...then don't be surprised if what I say makes you angry.

I'm often blunt...

Now... Stop reading this and go see a doctor about your heart.

BTW: As yourself Left or Right side?
Have you done anything unusual in the last few days (gardening, picking children up etc) because it could be muscular.

Also .... Take an Aspirin (not other meds, a real Aspirin). If the pain goes away or diminishes a bit, then it's quite likely heart related. Don't muck around with it.
