Hi guys,
I really need your help!
I had an echocardiogram and EKG of my heart done about two weeks ago, and the results to both were clear and fine. Rationally, this fear needs to end, but it is getting worse again.
The past three days I have been having mild pain and strange feelings in my left shoulder pain and breast area. It feels like a sudden pressure and pushing pain that goes from my shoulder - like it is being pushed into my chest and causes a sudden scary, but mild pain. It then leaves for a little while and comes back and is present and I can feel like a bubble feeling in my chest and back that is uncomfortable and feels like it is expanding. I realise that I have trouble regulating my breathing at points though, as when I worry, I notice my breathing become practically non-existent (basically I forget how to breath). I am terrified I am about to have a heart attack! Again, this fear is back!
How do I rationalise this fear? Can anyone offer any similar stories or advice?
Many thanks!
