I have small leakages in my mitral and bicuspid valves in my heart. I'm just wondering if this valve problem may be the cause of this pain I'm having. These pains starts out of the blue. They really feel like a knife cutting me from the back of my breast to the front. They last anywhere from 3 to 6 minutes or so. I feel sorta weird when I have these pains. Afterwards I can feel the place on the side of my breast where the pain was. This doesn't happen often. They just hit 2 times this evening. I feel like I've been knocked for a loop. These are really, really sharp pains. I've tried to search online to try and find some kind of an answer and didn't get anywhere. I'd just like to have a reliable idea what may be causing this pain.

I would suggest that it is related to your heart. Please do yourself a favor and see your doctor about it before it becomes an even bigger problem for you.
By the way, you are not a "dummy".
Good luck!

The pains you are describing can be anything from indigestion to a heart attack. You need to go to the emergency room immediately. The will do and EKG, Echocardiogram, Chest X-ray, and blood work. The heart is nothing to ignore. When the valves in the heart are leaky, you don't have enough pumping pressure to force the blood into the arteries that feed the heart oxygen. Go to the ER now,,,,, the best news would be that you have indigestion and your heart is still strong. There is no shame in checking out chest pain for any reason. You don't have to prove that you are really sick,,,, that is the doctors' job. Even if you are wrong, you are still smart for checking out chest pain!
