I'm absolutely fed up of constantly thinking I am having or am going to have a heart attack.
The last couple of weeks have been really bad I have done that much googling that every single symptom I have is related to a woman's heart attack symptoms , my arms heart , my back hurts I have chest pains , tired ,pains under my ribs. Last August I was sent to hospital with suspected PE they ran so many tests on every organ possible , my GP assured me there was nothing wrong I was fit and healthy but I keep telling myself that wasAugust what about now and why do I feel like this constantly poorly can't take it anymore , I can't seem to live my life as I'm constantly panicking about having a heart attack 😭😭😭
Anyone else the same ?

Hi Natalie yes I've been through all this it comes with anxiety. It's not real it's your brain playing games and is taking over. It's a awful feeling and frightening. Try to do some breathing excercises that will help x

Yes I understand how you feel the way you are, all I keep saying is in an ideal world when would you eventually say I have had so many tests I need to stop.
When we have tests generally you increase risks incurred while taking tests.
When would you accept you are ok. How would you feel if having so many tests had wrecked your health, who would you blame.
Sorry

This has been me for the passed month and half! I even get jaw pain and shortness of breath! Tests were also normal... said I had a young heart.. as I'm only 20. But I smoke and I'm overweight... so that adds to my concern. I feel like I haven't gotten a good nights sleep in so long, because I go to sleep thinking I'm gonna die, and then I wake up with heart palpitations and think "this is it!" Every time I get heart burn, or I'm sore on either side of my body, my mind instantly thinks heart attack. I could have toe pain and I still think it's my heart. I have had a couple of good days since this all started, but I just want to wake up not fearing for my life even though I've been reassured I'm not going to have a heart attack multiple times! I've started to use icy hot or biofreeze on my sore arms and shoulders.. takes my mind off of it for a while. But I'm right there with you! It is awful and in so sick of feeling like this! I just want my life back!

Yes I do. I have had sharp pains in my chest for hours now and can't seem to figure out what's wrong with me. I can't sleep!
