Man I’ve been to the hospital with tight chest pains 3 times this month they just send me home. I’m considering telling them I’m suicidal so they’ll actually admit me I seriously feel like I could die. I just don’t want that on my record though you know. I’m really not lol just so sick

Do you have asthma ?

No I don’t think so but google says you can develop it at anytime so I wouldn’t be surprised it does feel like everything is tight from my throat to my chest and hot showers usually help me.

How about setting up an appointment with your PCP and have them schedule different testing.

I tried that the asshole said I didn’t need anything done it was just my anxiety 😒 so I’m looking for a new dr as we speak. I have anxiety as well but this is different I’m waking up with numb legs and stuff and my hearts just pumping so hard aspirin worked for about a week but it’s not helping anymore

I have it and if Tums didn’t work immediately, I would swear it was a heart attack. It goes up my back and into my neck and sometimes cheeks.
Luna_bear ··
yes. Same. I never have the heartburn sensation. Just aches in my chest and back, and feels like a ball in my throat. It was really scary until we figured out what it was and I was able to be treated

I know you don’t want to believe it’s anxiety but anxiety really can manifest in weird ways in our body. We hold stress in different areas. I’m not saying that’s your issue but it could be. Seek a second opinion or see a cardiologist. (They’ll prob tell you it’s chest wall pain and not connected to your heart but good to check it off of your list.)

I would normally think that also but even if I take a Xanax I have the horrible pain. And also my heart rate blood pressure and everything eles is fine I just can’t shake this damn pain and my heart pumps hard.

@sassywvgirl, I would recommend seeing a cardiologist and getting an EKG.

@sassywvgirl I totally agree with this. I do wanna say they should have done an EKG before diagnosing anxiety, from my experience, my heart was checked for problems before they even considered it was anxiety.
It does sound like anxiety though, especially if your heart rate and blood pressure show no change, however I suggest you see a different doctor just to be sure you do have the proper diagnosis.

Please find a cardiologist and/or a pulmonologist. They’ll do any tests needed to get to the bottom of it
