Hi all,

I've been suffering anxiety attacks for a few weeks now and have had chest pain with the palpitations. I'm finding the chest pain/tightness is regularly occurring. I don't have any shortness of breath. Its almost as though the palpitations have caused my chest to become sore. Does anyone get this.? Xxx

hi sallyMB. don't worry my wife often gets tightness in her chest / palpitations as tho her heart is missing a beat, doc checked her over even tho he said it was normal with anxiety attacks, but if you are worried about it always go to docs to check it out.( peace of mind )take care.x

Sally - I believe this is common. Have known a couple of people with same problem. Sorry you're going through it. xx

Same as above, go to the docs to get a full check up to put your mind at rest but it sounds like stress/anxiety. I would book a docs appointment to put your mind at rest, let us know how you get on x

Thanks for all your support. I went to the doctors and had another ECG which showed everything to be fine. Had a lovely reassuring doctor at the hospital he really made me feel good xx
