Severe chest pain constantly since yesterday please help :/

I don't know what heart burn feels like I don't know if I've had it but no I don't have any Pepcid

Hi Justine I'm the exact same situation as u at the minute I was in hospital last night again thinking I was having a heart attack I'm so convinced they are missing something iv constantly got these chest pains so painful just underneath my left breast/left arm and also centre of my chest, I had ecg, blood tests and x ray ( I have had all these previously) and yet they still haven't found anything but I'm convinced they are missing something I have this pain constantly and it also travels to in between my shoulder blades!, I'm petrified of dying and I constantly think something bad is going to happen I also feel like everything is going to turn black I don't know why but I just have this terrible feeling I can feel and Sense something bad is gunna happen iv been on propanolol 10mg 3 times daily for about a month now and they do take the fast heartbeat off for so long then it comes back but the pain and palpitations and pounding heart is still there I just can't believe them when they say there is nothing wrong they say I'm too young to have a heart attack ( I'm 22 ) but all I'm constantly feeling is complete dread and I can't believe this is all anxiety related to such physical symptoms it's unreal I'm so fed up of feeling like this as I can imagine u are hun I just want u to known ur not alone I know exactly how u feel and hope I have reassured u I'm going trough the same thing and always here for a chat sorry to ramble on about my symptoms but I'm so scared the pain and pressure and shooting pains and everything else is always located just under or inside my left breast and that's what makes me think it's my heart hope ur feeling ok now hun stay positive I know it's hard! X

Oh my god I have the exact same thing. I have all that pain in all of those places and can't get the idea of heart attack out of my mind. I phoned 111 last night, I've had an ecg and blood tests too.

'Just anxiety' they always say. Wish our minds could accept that

I hope you feel better soon. This is all just totally rubbish but we'll get there eventually x

Yeah I'm the same hun I just cant physically accept that something is going to happen to me I'm wide awake in bed right now and the pressure and pain in my left breast and underneath is unreal!! It's like a burning sensation also I just feel in going to die and iv been misdiagnosed such a awful feeling but we will get through it hun x

I know it all too well, the thing is we never learn. Like sometimes I sit and wonder why I'm so convinced that I'm gonna die when I've been wrong about it so far, why should I take the negative thoughts word for it? But I do. Apparently Zoloft (sertraline) is a good medication , I've revebtly started taking it. I'm just waiting for it to start working XD

I try to say it too like I was thinking look it's anxiety you have had it before and got through it and you will again and keep on getting through it but then my mind says no this is serious get to hospital it's like it's warning me my chest feels like it's going to callapse amd iv never heard of that medication hun ill have to ask my doctor about it x

Hey how did you sleep? Are you feeling any better? Xx

I try to say that to myself like ' look if you were having a heart attack you'd had had one by now ' but There's just always the thoughts saying 'no listen this is a heart attack you're going to die '

I did get control of it for a few weeks but i lost it again x

I'm the same, it comes and goes. Just wish there was an easy way to switch it off!

Yes im the same I also think we'll what if I ignore it this time thinking it's a panic attack and it turns out to be a heart attack and I die all I have in my head at the moment is the pain and pressure in my chest is the build up of a heart attack I also have pressure in back of my neck but my chest is really bothering me tonight also aching feeling in left arm iM so scared im petrified of going sleep in case I don't wake up 😭

Yeah I think that too like 'this time is different, this time something's wrong'

I'm sure that you'll be fine, maybe take some paracetamol or some ibuprofen cos they're anti inflammatory and should help the pain. When I feel panicky about having a heart attack cos of all this iv taken to checking my pulse in my wrist and if it's beating normally then I can talk myself out of it cos the pulse would be very weak there

And there is always 111 who you can call , I'm thinking about calling them myself x

I took Co codamol earlier but it's painful but I'd say it's the fast heart rate and random shooting pains I keep getting that's making it worse and oh that's good to know I always thought if it's beating fast my hearts in danger too and thanks hun ill call them if I get really bad just trying to keep focused talking to u lovely people x

Hi Laura Id just like to let you know that my gp said I have Costochondritis which is inflammation of the chest wall and rib join or whatever. Very painful but not serious and is probably caused by hyperventilating during panic attacks. There's not much than can be done for it though, just got to rest

But it can cause chest pain and also back pain and stabbing Allover chest x

Benzos give some relief because they ar muscle relaxants x
