Muscle twitching in chest

I dont want to go to doctors all the time! I went to a cardiologist, a neurologist i had blood tests and went to the ER two times in the past 2 months! Everyone says i am fine! I dont know!

Good luck to whatever you decide

Always here

BOB

Thank u so much!

Hi there! I know this is an old post but I just ran across it. I have EXACTLY the same symptoms you did. I, too, visited ER and was told by a cardiologist I was fine! I'm wondering how you are doing now and what helped you. Thank you! Dan

I dont take any meds, today my chest muscles are twiching like crazy and i am having shortness of breath! When will this stop?????? 😫

I know it's difficult, but even if it's just for one hour today, try not to focus on the twitching. I know that is difficult, but it's not about ignoring it or pretending it's not happening.You're accepting that it's happening. Focus your attention on something else, whether it be reading, doing chores, whatever. Your mind will inevitably wander back to the twitching, this is normal, but when it does just gently and with self-compassion bring your attention back to whatever you are doing.  So don't be annoyed with yourself for your mind going back to your twitching, just notice it, and refocus. See if that will give you some respite now and again. Just try it for a few minutes here and there. The more you practise it, the easier it will become. When you do this, don't expect the twitching to stop, just accept it but focus on something else. I think you're in a vicious circle at the moment, you have anxiety so you twitch, and your twitching adds to your anxiety.   

You could also consider exercise to relax and tire the muscles or progressive muscle relaxation. 

Thank you for your advise! I will try to relax and continue on with my day! I will practise!

Hope it goes well, let me know how it goes.

Hi Sofia, do you also get chest pain and does your left chest feels sore also? I have the same exact thing. Twitching along with left arm pain. Went to the E.R on multiple ocasions. I`m in Boston so I went to Mass General Hospital, had EKG tests done and docs said it was muscleskeletal do to anxiety/depression. I am also a hypochondriac and have fear of diseases. I am 29 yo male and would love to one day feel normal again. 

I feel your pain I have constant left chest pain and muscle twitching and I take ibprufen for the pain but it just doesn't seem to work and the docs tell me it's anxiety and what not what did they tell you to do to get rid of the pain

Thanks for the advice! I just started following this thread as I just started having these muscle spasm/ vibrations that are painless but up my anxiety even more. Being mildly hypochondriac doesn’t help. Great advice as it’s completely painless when it happens , so I’ll see how it goes but will consult my physician as well. 

Hi Thiago I have left arm pain as well. It feels like it’s my nerves and it goes all the way down to my finger tips. And my arm will hurt for the whole night sometimes.  Has your condition gotten better? Or gone away?

Thankyou for advice I would do that.. even when I did It gave me relief .. but what if u dont get anxiety but still get nuscle twitches even when anxiety has stopped nd u get no other symptoms other than this F*****G TWITCHING AND EAR PAIN(ONLY ONCE IN A WHILE)
