I don't know what to do, I feel like I'm going insane... (Chest pain, ect...)

Hi, I'm 21, and I've been dealing with anxiety since January. I am completely terrified all of the time, and I just don't know what to do anymore... I've been having severe chest pain, arm pain, jaw pain, headaches... you name it, I've had it. The chest pain is what concerns me the most, but I can't seem to shake it. I've had multiple EKGs, bloodwork, Chest X-rays, everything... and the doctors all say that it's anxiety. I just don't understand, it's hard for me to breathe all of the time, and my chest hurts, and my back hurts... it all hurts. I don't know what to do anymore, I'm on 50mg of Zoloft, and 25mg of Xanax as needed... and I'm just not getting better. I'm so scared that the Doctors missed something, and that I'm dying... and I'm afraid to go to sleep every night. I've been seeing a therapist, and it's just not helping. Can anyone relate? Please... Help.
