Hi Nyda How long have you had the chest pain ?

I was rushed into A&E with a suspected heart attack this year The pain suddenly came on it was very very severe like a stabbing stinging pain in the middle of my chest I felt like I was in a vice and being squeezed and I felt I would pass out I have since been diagnosed with a heart problem

So if you are having constant pain not sudden then I wouldn't worry too much It is a symptom of anxiety it could be indigestion too

It's always worth checking out with your GP of course but try not to worry

Good luck

They done blood work and ekg bt i dont think s enough

[Cat33]

If they sent you home and told you all is fine then I'm sure it is If there was the slightest doubt they wouldn't leave it there I was refereed straight away to a cardiologist and sent for an angiogram where my problem was diagnosed

Go back if you don't feel reassured otherwise you will keep worrying

Keep a diary too of the pain

I hope you get peace and feel much better but I promise you they take heart problems very very seriously and wouldn't just let you go

Take care

Thank u had like 5 ekgs done this year. 2 blood work but still bugs me

[Cat33 in reply to Nyda]

I'm sure you are fine blood tests show up heart problems I didn't realise that until this year when it was the first thing they did

If you have had 5 ecgs done then you must be ok and they aren't referring you so they can't be worried

You wouldn't have gone on so long without getting any worse

Try and go day to day keep telling yourself its anxiety loads of people get the same symptoms You will probably find you have periods of no pain and they will get longer and longer

Please please try not to worry

I know it's hard xx
