Sorry to hear you have terrible pains in your chest. Some people will say its anxiety and panic attacks but if your in doubt i would seek medical attention. It will put your mind at rest and make you a little more relaxed about the situation. It wont hurt to have these pains checked out.

Thoughts are with you the way your feeling. Hope you feel better soon

Big hugs

I understand what you are saying and you can call NHS direct you will speak with a qualified nurse or doctor who will advise you what to do. They may say go to your local A & E or ring your own GP out of hours surgery number. If you cannot get there you can request a home visit. Please dont sit and worry make a call

Ring nhs direct. They will send for an ambulance or send u to a n e... Anything to do with chest pain they do. Last weekend when mine was bad thy insisted I went to hospital. If you're this stressed out Bout it all go to hospital put your mind at rest. I completely sympathise as you know I get it too. If you've had it all day then I'm sure it's anxiety it wouldn't pro long. Let us know tho thinking of u xxx

Hi Sheffield, darling, I have long term damage to the muscles in my shoulder and the top of my chest, the brachial plexus. If they spasm which they can do with anxiety it causes the most awful pain with pins and needles, numbness right down to my fingers. It took me ages to accept such severe pain could be from spasmed muscles!!!!

BUT until you have been checked you do not know what the pain is caused by so I would suggest getting checked properly. Talk to NHS Direct. They're well informed and reassuring and they'll know if you need to see a doc tonight.

Hope you feel better soon.

Let us know how you get on.

Love

Hi, flowerbud hit nail on head. Get checked out. I have been to AE many times. Staff always regarded me as genuine and treated as such. So reassuring to get all clear. One thing I would suggest. Dial 999 to fast track straight to emergency, I have been advised so, on numerous occasions. All the best of wishes..........

[Hidden]

O lovely it sounds awful. Don't worry about being silly get it checked. That's what they are there for. Good luck. Big hug. X

Hi Sheffield how did you get on. Did you go to A&E ? MY X Husband rang me in the morning to say make an appointment at the GP for him later that day as he was having chest pains whilst driving his lorry. I knew what the GP would say and sure enough I was told to get him to Hospital He was a stubborn Bastard so I rang his Boss and told him he would not park his Lorry up and call Ambulance. Antway he came home several hours later and I called Ambulance and guess what he was having a Heart Attack. He was admited to hospital and given a Stent which has sorted the problem out. The Emergency service are happy to rule out any Heart problems so please call them as many times as you want. We all feel so much better after having a trip to the Emergency Dept and told its just PANIC

I get like this get pains and feel tight and light headed and spaced out and feel like u could just drop dead but the more u worry when u get the pain the worse you will feel trust me I am bad for it I always keep feelingmy heart it's shoking how it can just be anxiety you start to notice things about your body ou wouldn't have noticed before also x

[Indylola in reply to John12]

I am feeling crap. Tight chest, lightheaded, uncomfortable stomach.

I have been checked out, it is anxiety. I keep talking to myself, saying im not dying, but seeing your post helps that other people have similar symptoms. I too notice things happening in my body that I don't think other people give a thought to.

Hope you all have better days x

[John12 in reply to Indylola]

Weird isn't it like you'll feel everywhere realy looking for excuses to moan about our body or eeling that something is wrong with us x

[sheffieldwed]

[John12 in reply to sheffieldwed]
