Hiya This Is Gnaa be long Crying or Very sad

im sixteen years old when i just turned fifteen last year year i started to have weird chest pains ! went to the gp he checked me over and gave me paracetamol and told me it was a viral infection that would go in two weeks two weeks past i still had it ....but put it in the back of my mind then i started having arm pain with it ! somtimes the pain is sharp but mostly dull!.....anyway i went back to the doctors who then told me i had anxiety ...and i should see a physiciartrist !

the dull pains still exceeded with the shortness of breathe aswell so my mother rushed me into casualty ...regardless that i am only sixteen ive convinced myself its cardiac ! they did an (ECG) which was clean of heart problems ! Though i were suspecting lung clots !

Anyway i went upstairs and seen a paediatric doctor who ! listeb to my hurt and lugs for anbout 15 minutes ...she gave me the all clear blood pressure perfect tempreature ! fine
so i went home !!

6 months later the pains still there this time my jaws having pain aswell as my lower back and when i breathe my back hurts and a part of my chest when i stretch !! im petrified and scared im gnna die !!

then i seen a paramedic who told me it wasnt my heart after all this time after all im sooo young its unlikely But does happen !

blood tests a few months later are normal i still crnt shake this off though watever it is my chest clicks and all when i stretch i get wrist pains aswell !

im having thoughts of diein im scared !! do you think this is cardiac!
ITS BEEN A YEAR AND A HALF !!! WAT COULD IT BE !!!!!

i have to see my physicartrist again who will put me pn medication for anxiety pleaaaseee someone REPLY !!
