I am 5 months out and it feels like someone is squeezing under my breastbone

and sometimes under my arms with a vice. It has been like this for a few days. Most of the time it is a dull but constant pain, but occasionally gets stronger. Sometimes the pain radiates down toward my belly button. Eating and drinking don't seem to aggravate it. I have vomited twice in the last two days. I have a call into my surgeon, but am waitng to hear back. I haven't called my PCP yet, wanted to check in with the surgeon first. Any ideas? I'm getting a little nervous....
