Yasmin Vossoughian wanted to believe doctors when they told her the pain she was experiencing in her chest was simply acid reflux. Unfortunately, she says, her body was "pretty certain not to believe" the misdiagnosis.
Speaking upon her return to MSNBC the news anchor detailed how on Dec. 20 she began to feel chest pains which "waxed and wained" over the next 10 days. On Dec. 30, she went to urgent care and was told she had reflux. "I didn't really buy it but I was relieved it wasn't my heart," she said. "My body though was pretty certain not to believe the reflux. The next day I woke up with severe pain in my chest and left shoulder, it was like a tightening in my chest when I took deep breaths that got worse when I was laying flat."
