Hi Fallon61,
Thank you for your question and for joining EmpowHER. If you have been under the care to manage menopause symptoms (you were taking estrogen), did you consult with the doctor prior to stopping the treatment? If pain is severe enough, you should request an appointment with the doctor immediately, or seek urgent medical care to rule out a heart problem. A medical professional could help you pinpoint the cause of the pain, and provide proper treatment knowing your whole health history, including past injury from your accident.

Hope this information helps.
