I am 17 years old, it all started when I had the worst panick attack, after the attack I felt ill I went to gp told I had virus. That week I was none stop vomiting, wouldn’t eat anything and my anxiety was through the roof. I then stated getting really bad chest pains so I went to doctors she told me was acid reflux. I stared to feel bit better but then chest pains started again, I feel like I’m wearing heavy vest on top it’s so uncomfortable but hurts when you press on my chest. I have had ecg and blood work all clear. I don’t believe this could be anxiety it makes me cry everyday. I’m not my self anymore, I just want pain to go away if anyone can help or has same symptoms please let me know. Thanks
Yes ma'am...I've had chest pain for over 20 years now and I have had every test on the planet multiple times. I even had a heart catheterization in 2012 and it was normal. Anxiety can cause chest pains as well as hundreds of other symptoms. If you have been given the all clear to any other medical issues I suggest you see a psychiatrist and a psychologist and start treating the anxiety. The sooner the better. There are all kinds of treatments out there and you just have to find the one that works for you. Best of Luck!!!
Hi Abbey,
Also look up costacondritus or however you spell it, if it’s like sore to touch on ribs or anything, if not I also have chest pain in lungs and back when breathing and dr did chest X-ray, the works and nothing!! So yes it does the sooner you stop focusing on it he better it will get, but it’s very hard to ignore trust me I know!
