I've been to the hospital because of it several times,
and they did tests and couldn't find anything.
They said it's because of anxiety, and also i'm only 15
so the chances of a heart attack are minimal.
(and I definately suffer from anxiety)

I dont get shooting pains in my left arm, just little aches like every were else in my body. Delancy your fine all anxiety sufferers get stuff like that. Your only 15. No way. Just is probably just trying to scare you, even if he did have a heart attack I doubt he has any idea what its like to have severe anxiety. He dosnt understand what its like and that most of the symptoms we get mimic health problems.

Sorry, I didn't mean to scare anybody. I didn't realize that you were only 15, or that you had already been to the dr to have it checked out. Those things were not mentioned in the original post.
As far as not understanding severe anxiety, wrong !!! I suffer from it, as well as a host of other health problems. So, in that regard, I do understand, cause I live with it.
I must admit tho, that I did not know a lot of symptoms of anxiety mimic other health problems. Thanks for enlightening me on this.
See, I just dont get to see a dr, unless I am taken to an emergency room somewhere.
I wish you guys the very best in your battle against anxiety.

Omg thats the same isssue i'm having currently! I started having panic attacks last year in april and then THIS april i started getting pain in my left arm to! I'm only 15 to! But i've been to the doctor and they said it was my muscle that keeps hurting. Idk if this pain has to do with remembering what happened to me last year around this time or what. It's really scary cuz its been going on for a month and it hurts alot T_T
