Trigger warning.

So 2months ago I had an EKG done and everything looked good. Well for the last 4weeks I've been having symptoms of a heart attack. Sore jaw, chest pain, headache and so on. Can I get some reassurance from anybody? I need help to calm my nerves and anxiety.

Anxiouslady, my understanding is that a heart attack doesn't last for 4 weeks, it happens much more quickly than that. So I would say that the symptoms that you mention are puely down to anxiety and you aren't the first. Because you experience anxiety and you've been thinking about yourheart a lot following the ecg that's all it takes to get jaw ache and chest pain. But for your reassurance I do think you should go back and have another talk with your doctor mentioning the symptoms of the past 4 weeks. He/she may decide on a blood test but if after the visit and any further test the doctor tells you your heart is fine then do accept it.
