Hello every one, I haven't been on here for a while, as I've been doing pretty good and seem to be in control, well more so than I was. I still get the odd bad few days but I don't let it keep me hidden away indoors any more. So any way, randomly the other night I had a bit of a panic attack, completely out of the blue and for no real reason, and since then I have had constant heat pain. Now this is not a new symptom got me as this is a huge part of my anxiety, but usually it last a little while them fades away. But this time it had been all day and night, and actually quite painful. It is usually on my left side, feels as if it on the top of by breast area, and sometimes goes into my shoulder and back, also quite a bit of pain in the middle of my chest too. It's really starting to worry me now and it's kicking of my anxiety big time. I'm just after some reassurance really, and wondering if any one else gets chest pain as bad as this?

    I get this too with anxiety. It can be very worrying but I mena I've had on and off chest pain that's constant for weeks and my heart is fine so i have accepted that it's a symotom of anxiety and I don't experience it as much now because like most things, I just get on with it. x

    I suffer with chest pain a lot with anxiety, but it's really bad this time and it's not easing off at all. I'm not even that anxious. I can't help but worry. What do you guys do to relieve it? X

      It's horrible isn't it. I've tried everything and I can't shift it, driving me nuts. Right now in lying down and it's in my whole chest but stronger on the left and in my back on the left. I know it's prob anxiety but I can't help think the worst. Ahhhhhh..... X
