    a feature of my illness over the past 12 months has been chest pains, palpitations too, however again I have been cleared of any heart issues. Most certainly my anxiety kicks in big time when I have suffer from chest pains...can be daily...to the point where I never know what is pure anxiety and what is pure pain. It is a nightmare to be honest.
