Something bothering me...

[Jayde_96]

So I keep getting this sharp pain in the left side of my chest. (I often get palpitations) I have had blood test ECG's heart monitor all no longer than about a year ago. (Bloods recently) all have come back ok and the doctor keeps telling me my heart is ok but, when I get these pains it feels like I'm having a heart attack! Do I need to be worried or is this really anxiety?

I think u should stop worrying if u have done all these test and everything came out clear u shouldnt have any worries.

Hi Panickier, as Cwoods stated, if all tests have come back okay, then you do need to stop worrying. The sharp pain in the left side of your chest could very well be muscle pain. But because it is on the left side you get concerned and the concern prompts the adrenaline to flow and you get palps. A heart attack is not a chronic pain but muscle spasms are. Listen to your doctor who knows your health history and try to relax.
