Though anxiety can cause chest pain and
discomfort, I would definately get checked
out. Just go to the doctor and tell him
or her everything you're feeling plus that
you have high blood pressure and
whatnot.
But don't get too worried because anxiety
really does cause these things, I live
through them everyday so if it's that then
you will too.

You should get it checked out, but it
sounds like the same thing I experienced.
Anxiety symptoms can cause a viscous
cycle. You get chest pains because you're
anxious, and then you get more anxious
because you have chest pains. I tried
antidepressants, and they helped, but I
hated the side effects. Once I stopped
the drugs, just knowing that it was only
anxiety and nothing worse helped the pains
go away. Keep taking those deep breaths!

Dear doodle,
it sounds like you need to see a doctor
(just to make sure)...I have had the same
thing, oddly enough, a clot in my left leg
(which went away)
and have chest pains frequently, it was
diagnosed as anxiety...Anxiety can really
do some wierd things to your body, it can
take over if you don't realize it...But
please make sure there isn't something
more going on just for safety's sake....If
you have symptoms like me, you probably
have these problems on days when anything
breaks your normal routine...Anxiety is a
real condition...It isnt just in someones
mind..And I have known the strongest of
people who had to take meds for it, at
least temporarily if not longer..You
should really get checked out, there are
alot of things out there that can help if
it is anxiety, aside from
medication...Good luck, best
wishes...Christa
