Moderate Sharp Pain In Chest Followed By Dizzyness,heart Problem
Posted: 11-14-07 16:37pm

?Every once in awhile out of the blue i will get a moderate sharp stabbling pain in my chest on the left side under the ribs,it's not painful enough to bring me to my knees but enough to take my breath away for a few seconds and makes me very lightheaded and dizzy taking me about 1/2 hour to recover from.And sometimes i can just be sitting down watching TV relaxing and i will get this extremely bad flush feeling that comes over my body and my hands and feet will start to sweat,my heart will start to race and i get very dizzy and have a hard time getting in a really deep breath.Does this sound like the beginnings of any kind of a heart problem? P.S.I did'nt have any kind of stress in my life before this started happening.This problem started about 3 months ago. Sad

I am a 43 year old male,i don't smoke or drink.I have been to the ER and my GP,have had EKG EEG and blood tests and everything comes back normal.Sometimes the area around my upper ribcage on the left side is very sore especially when i try and stretch that area it feels worse like a tearing sensation.And my upper chest is always tight all the way accross from left to right.I have been diagnosed with Panic Disorder and this is making it worse and it has become one of my anxiety attack triggers,one tiny pain in my chest sets off my anxiety and i don't know how to stop it,it's really frustrating.

Everything You Got i gt !! i knw what it feels like weird pains and sensastions tight chest and theres no answers for it

1..... you need to try and forget bout it i knw its hard but anxiety is based on Obsessing about the pain thats why it never goes away im pretty sure its not a heart problem !!!

i thought mine is !!.....Come on im sixteen !!! and had all the tests !

soooo i think you should also seee a physiciartist and try to get some sort of medication to calm you down Smile
