I had heart/chest pain that slowly got more and more intense over the span of about 3-4 days after most of the 2nd dose side effects wore off. In hindsight I should have gone to the hospital much sooner for Heart attack symptoms, but I had an inkling it wasn't a heart attack because it entirely would go away if I laid on my side just so after about 60 seconds... and magically come back if I sat or stood up, and go away when I laid down again like a switch --> not heart attack symptoms.. anyways I digress.
after EKG, xrays, bloodwork, a big scare and such the doctors put me on ibuprofen and it subsided after another ~3 days

All the cases i've heard they have been exercise onset. Mine was shortly after a I returned to the gym too, albeit for weight lifting.
