I've got this sharp, stabbing pain on the left side of my chest, but it only happens when I sleep on my left side. If I sleep on my right, there's no pain. It just started last night. I've also got a mild flu going on but no fever, and my stomach seems okay even though I have these on and off digestion issues like irritable bowel. Should I be worried about this chest pain, or is it likely linked to the flu or something else?

I'm feeling really off with sweating and shivering, and it's like I can't control it. Then out of nowhere, I really need to go to the bathroom. My forehead feels like it's under a lot of pressure and I'm having difficulty breathing through my nose because it's all clogged up. Do you have any idea what's going on or how I can get rid of these symptoms?
