Hi,

Here are some ideas for set-up phrases:

Even though:

this pain is trying to tell me something, and I am not sure what...as I tap I listen with my intutition

there is a part of me that doesn't know what this pain means, I allow myself to get the message my body is trying to tell. When I get the message, I will really get it & I will be able to let the pain go

this pain has the doctors & me puzzled...

(tap on your deepest fears) this pain has scared me to death--in fact, I have been afraid that I might die (include all of your deepest fears that you haven't voiced)--include cuss words if you are willing--you are trying to get to the bottom of this

Are there any burdens that you feel like you have been carrying on your shoulders? Include that in your tapping. When you tap, allow yourself to get real with yourself--tap on whatever comes up--especially what you haven't given voice to--your deepest secrets & fears. Is there something BIG in your life that you haven't addressed?

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you get any progress.

Hi,

I think you're on to something in your explorations how to be more specific than the global statements you first tried. In your post, you mention the feeling of anger.  I would encourage you to explore this more.  If the feeling of anger in your shoulder and body reminded you of someone, who would that be?  If it could talk, what would it say?  Was there anything in your life that you were feeling angry about when this pain first started?

Questions like these can help to lead us to the stuck emotions that often lay underneath stubborn pain.

Blessings,

Paul

Hi!

       Are you tapping a full round, including your fingers and Gamut Point?

It sounds like the problem is located in an arm meridian, possibly, Small Intestines. In which case it would be helpful to tap on finger points. The Small Intestines Meridian is paired with our Heart Meridian and emotional connection is Sadness and counter-part positive is JoY.

Shoulder Blade Problems:

1. Re-evaluation time

2. Are having a real difficulty in handling reasponsibilities joyfully.

Right Shoulder Blade:

1. They have felt like "the buck stops here", and it is their responsibility to make things work.

2. They have taken an over-responsible, under appreciated and hyper-accountable role, because they found out early on if they did not do this, all hell would break out.

3. Now they suddenly have to re-evaluate and re-decide what exactly their responsibilities  in the world around them actually are. 

I find it helpful to locate the point of intense pain and touch it while I am tapping. "This pain, right here!" Massaging the point.

Also locating points on meridian charts has been helpful to specify more clearly.

Hope this is helpful. It is very possible that you will revolve into a "chasing the pain" situation as you tap. Just keep tapping. Because you initially had chest pains.....My stand-by is always two asperin, bottle of water with any sign of chest pain, and Dr. Mercola suggests ice over right ear along with medical care. 

He has a video on UTube that I have posted on my site http://www.naturalforcesforhealth.com/ACUPOINT-CHART.html

that explains the cause of heart attacks based on territorial loss conflicts, which might be helpful to you, also. 

I have a quick-sheet available of acupoints that control chest pain, cardio etc. I can send it to you if you feel it might be helpful.

Blessings,

Thanks for all your replies.  I did not need to do any more EFT.  When I woke up this morning the pain in my arm and shoulder blade had gone.

Congratulations! Sometimes it takes some time to integrate the tapping...

We appreciate your sharing.

In gratitude,

JoAnn

 Congradulations!  Like JoAnn says, sometimes it takes a bit for things to integrate.  Well done.

I think my tapping of “I choose and allow my body to heal the pain in the quickest safest possible manner"  was the one that done it.  My body just needed time to safely heal the pain.

 Yay!!!

If you notice any negative thinking coming in like, "this isn't going to last" or anyother negative thoughts--tap them away!

I agree! Thanks for sharing!
