Yes, I get chest pain when im feeling anxious. Sometimes it comes when im not anxious then makes me anxious. Its like something is crushing my sternum, it can be very painful. . Its quite a common symptom of anxiety and some people refer to it as 'Elepahant on chest' feeling.
Mine mainly happens in the evenings when its become dark outside, thats when my anxiety affects me the most. I too had heart tests & a chest xray and all was normal.
