Please go get yourself checked out, the
one time I had severe left arm pain, and
it was a svere numbness, almost like a leg
cramp, it was a heart attack!!!

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.
