Hi Everyone!
I'm rather new to the health anxiety thing. For the past 3 months, I've been experiencing daily anxiety around my heart. It started with heart palpitations and have moved on to occasional chest pain. I've had multiple EKGs, an echocardiogram, chest x-ray and 30 day event monitor. Everything turned out pretty normal and my GP has declared that my symptoms are from anxiety.
I hate it when the chest symptoms morph as it makes me nervous that something has developed since those tests were done. My newest symptom that's giving me the most grief is an occasional pain in the chest (typically right side) that feels deep. It doesn't last long (maybe only a second or two). So I'm wondering if anyone else has felt chest pain that feels deep as part of their anxiety? Is this common?
Thanks!
