Help!! Health questions….heart attack…..diabetes?

Well….I have been eating really bad …just once or twice a day but either subways or other fast food burgers…etc. I am feeling this pain in my right back side right below my shoulder….it felt like a muscle spasm or still feels like it…sometimes when I move ….is it air from not eating till lunch time or late in the evening and skipping meals or is it something else like a heart attack….no chest pain, no sweating…just the pain in the back of my right shoulder……Also, a question for my mom…sorry…well she took her blood sugar today and it was 220+ maybe 260 ….it is always around 100+ but less than 200 ….does she have diabetes? She just got 2 shots from the doctor today for pain…could those have hightened her sugar readings? She doesn’t have diabetes but we all just check sugar readings…cause my grandma does. So what’s my diagnosis? What should I do? What is it? Ha ha sorry but I’m just freaking out. I took 2 aspirins for the pain.
I don’t have any chest pains and I can breathe normally or without pain….no sweating no numbness in arms….maybe some pain in arms but it can be from carrying around backpack all day today….and from work. ….I hate to say this but sometimes I go to the ER cause I think it’s a heart attack and it’s just heart burn but this time it’s not pain in chest it’s pain behind my right breast or lower shoulder. I don’t want another false alarm if you know what I mean….I think the doctor thinks I’m crazy cause my dad had a heart attack …and now I’m thinking I’m having one …but the pain is real.
Oh, I forgot I asked the doctor once to check my cholesterol and he didn’t want to…said there was no need…but I am a little overweight, 20 yrs old, and am in the college in-between-classes- junk-food stage….eat healthy when I can..
