Could chest pain be related to stress, Anxiety and panic attack?
For the past 2 months I’ve been feeling what you could describe a “typical” heart pain. It’s a pressure, squeezing, dull ache felt in the center of the chest (i.e. not over the heart) that is usually relieved by rest or Tylenol. I wouldn’t call a pain, just a pressure or tightness, right around the breast bone. I feel that 24 hours, some days it moves to the arm pit on the left side, some days goes back to the center chest. The 1st time it happened I went to see my MD and a Cardiologist. Several EKG’s later and a Heart Stress Test I was told everything was normal. The stress test said I had a chance of a heart failure of 0.002% in the next 2 years.So I was pretty relieved that the heart wasn’t the issue.but that pain won’t go away. my MD thinks it is a Mix of Stress and Anxiety, which the anxiety piece he is right. So I’ve been on Citalopram for 4 weeks, the anxiety is somewhat controlled, but the Chest pressure/pain is still there. Could all this be anxiety and how to end the pain?
I had the same problem several years ago. One doctor said I had a mitral valve problem and recommended immediate surgery. I got a second opinion and was diagnoses with stress. This doctor treated it with 800mg of motrin, rest and change in lifestyle that was stressing me out. Find out what things are bothering you, work, bills, a bad relationship and make a change. You only live once. When you are gone the things that stressed you will still be around.

HomeoPet Anxiety (15mL) $12.99 Promotes a sense of calm in animals exhibiting fear, fretting, anxiety or any unwanted behavior caused by: being left alone-separation, travel anxiety-car sick, thunderstorms, fireworks, loud noises, vet or groomer visits, or any other stressful situation. Dosing for Dogs/ Cats under 20 lbs/10 kg, 5 drops; 20-100 lbs/ 10-50 kg , 10 drops; over 100 lbs/50 kg, 15 drops. In acute cases the doses can be given every 15 minutes for the first hour, every 30 minutes in the second hour, once in the third hour, then reducing to 1 dose 3 times daily. For cases that are not acute one dose 3 times daily; this is often best started 5-7 days before any situation causing anxious behavior e.g.: before kenneling. Once a response is seen, the administration should either be reduced until symptoms reappear or ceased until symptoms reappear. If any reduction in dose or frequency leads to immediate recurrence of symptoms, then medication should be continued with a reduction being done every 12-21 days to check that the medication is providing control rather than relief of symptoms. Dosing for Small mammals, exotics, and birds: 3 drops in drinking water daily. For severe cases a drop can be diluted in 1 ml of water or other oral rehydration fluid and given to the patient orally, taking care to avoid aspiration of the fluid into the respiratory tract by the patient. This can be repeated as for cats and dogs where the case is acute, but with a volume of fluid suited to the patient.
