Axniety Chest Pains!!! HELP

[Chrissy364]

So I have been diagnosed with GAD and Panic Disorder. I haven't started medication yet because I want to see a psychiatrist first, what my Dr. recommended. Anyway, I've posted many questions about my symptoms and anxiety in general, but I'm still searching for answers. Well, we all get chest pain from anxiety. But I want to know if anyone experiences what I'm experiencing. My chest pain and discomfort usually never goes away. Sometimes it does, but it will come back very quickly. My chest pain hurts all over my chest. It radiates from my each of my breasts, to my ribs, to the center of the chest, under the breast bone, and in my upper abdominal region. Sometimes many of these areas hurt at the same time. Sometimes it feels like little needles are pricking the tissue, and other times it like a burning sensation. Like I have Icy Hot inside my chest. Sometimes it hurts too when I press on the areas of my chest I mentioned before. Sometimes it feels like a dull, rough pain, like I got punched in my chest. Also, a lot of times I have a very strange vibration or pulse running through my chest. It feels like a little roller coaster is riding around or a little bug with wings is flying around. Its a small creeping tickling sensation that doesn't hurt it just feels weird. I don't know if they are muscle spasms or what but it makes me feel odd. I also get terribly fast heart palpitations that last all day and night. The palpitations and chest pain just never go away (well, especially the palpitations). I have been seen by four different doctors. My primary care Dr, two doctors at Urgent Care, and a whole staff of nurses and a Dr. in the Emergency Room. I have had 3 EKGs, 2 chest x-rays, and blood work done two different times since June 19, 2009, the day after I had my first panic attack. But I feel the doctors are missing something, or I haven't gotten enough tests yet. I feel so awful all the time it just cant be only anxiety.  Does anyone experience any of the sensations of chest pain I mentioned above? They just feel so painful and odd to me all the time I just want to know what other people feel. PLEASE let Me know if you have odd chest pain/sensations like me, or what yours feels like. Thanks :)

hello, i'm river77. on July 8th i was on a plane for the 1st time and i passed out, my sister said i was shaking while i was out. after i got off i falt better and much better a day later. when i got back from vegas, i went to work and started feeling really breathless. i left work and went to the er and they ran a few test, and said everything was fine. i started feeling better, and a month later i wake up with this really bad chest pain, i quickly got an asprin and took it, i sat down for a little and than got up to go to the er, the next thing i know i started feeling breathless and i passed out, my husband rushed me to the er and they did all sorts of cardio test like, ekg, ultra sounds, you name it... everything came back fine, thank GOD.... i stayed over night and they ran more test. a week later i still falt breathless and my chest falt tender. so i went to a 2nd er and they did the same test even more. everything came back good. however my iron is really low and my bp go up in down, but the highest i've ever seen it is 148/98. this day i still feel shortness of breath and my chest pain is on and off but not real pain at all. my heart beats really fast at night and i am afrd to go to sleep sometime, i run back and forward to my parents house, because i feel secure when my mom (who is a nurse) watch me while i sleep. i finally stayed a week at home and i just don't feel right, what can i do, do anyone have any suggestions? i use to smell baby powder all the time because i love the smell, do you think that harmed me. i don't know, will someone ease my mind. i pray all the time, i just want to know if there is someone out there that feel like i do and found out what the problem was

I also have experienced the chest tightness and my heart flutters alot throughout the day.I have had all kinds of tests done,even my thyroid checked and i am very healthy.I was constantly worried about my bloodpressure also 92/60 but was told it is very good.I have found that I just have to calm down and not play into every pain I feel,and my chest doesnt get tight as often and my heart doesnt flutter as much.Good luck and just try to breathe and relax.Easier said than done sometimes i know,just try.
