no may be and no guessing please. First meet the cardiologist complete your test and see what he says.. If everything comes normal then you have anxiety but before that do not do any guessing... MEET the CARDIOLOGIST FIRST!!!!!!!

Relax, perform 7/11 exercise .. take a deep breath on count of 7 and take out on count of 11 .. do some meditation or yoga ... dont get panic... these symptoms are due to anxiety .. they will go away .. If ER visit is normal then things are normal ... visit anxietyguru.net for further information ... this will surely help you...

It gets very frustrating I know.  I went through the same thing.  I finally made this informed decision. When the same symptoms happen, I take an aspirin for my piece of mind, and then get in a comfortable position and do my best to relax my way through the pain.  I used guided imagery and deep breathing to get through it. I kept the phone by my side for piece of mind or in case of a gut feeling that " my life is in danger and I need help now". We can learn to read our symptoms even through anxiety attacks. Do not try to out smart your body or be a super star.  You might want a family member or a friend to be with you when your next attack happens to make sure you are learning to read your body correctly.  If there is any doubt, get to an ER.  Hope this helps.
