Kim, I hope your son is ok. No matter how old they get, we still worry about them. My son is 24, had numbness in his back, found out he has scoliosis (so either p/t or chiropractor perhaps). He also has complained about chest pains (all over in his chest). Now I know he's a hypochondriac like me, but I also know how worried he was. I believe he has had a chest xray and may have a stress test. His doctor irked me 'cuz she told him he was too young for this and not to worry about it. She finally took him seriously about his back, and now as well as the chest pain. I'd rather he get checked out than not, or worry about it all the time.

I hope all checked out ok with your guy!!!
