Hi, I am new to the site and I wanted to
ask a question. I am only 17 years old.
Five years ago, we had a house fire and
my little sister died. Ever since then
I get this bad, bad heart pain. It only
happens periodically, and when it does
happen, it only lasts for like a split
second. But the pain is just
excrutiating. I was wondering if
anybody can tell me what might be causing
this, because I think it might be stress.
I have seen a doctor and he says nothing
is wrong. If you could give me some
feedback, it would be very appreciated.
Thank you.....
Actually I had a full blown panic attack
one night caused by drugs unintentionally
taken at a party (don't drink the
punch...). It felt like a heart-attack ,
or a stroke. It felt very real - and
since that night i've been somewhat
fearing having another "attack." this
happened about four months ago, and I had
several panic attacks since then.
I felt pinching and sharp pains in my
chest for several months. I do believe
it was caused by my anxiety - as i've had
plenty of ekgs, bloodwork, ect... All of
the tests came out completely normal. I
wouldn't pay it any mind unless it starts
happening frequently (or if new symptoms
develop).
