Hi Fran, im sorry I cant help much. I get a fast heartbeat and cold arms sometimes but not pain. If you are really worried then you should get the gp or hospital to see you.
Do not sit alone and worry you will be worse.
Sorry to hear about your son, how awful,I didnt know, must have missed the posts.
Take care love Alexis

If you've had your heart checked recently and its been ok, then it may be anxiety induced pain.

Thanks meg and alexis .I had a look at the other post. I thought it might be angina becuse it was at the centre of chest and i felt sweaty and sore left arm.But my hubby says ive had alot of ecg and they came back normal...But can stress not cause heart attacks? Maybe my mind is wondering again looking for a answer and its simple its my anxitey thats doing this to me..Before it happed i had been watching truma E R that american Program..Maybe thats what trigered it?...cheers anyway..

Chest pain is quite common with anxiety. ER could have put the idea into your head - my mind does that to me sometimes too..:D

Hi Fran

I have had this in the past which then brings on the panic and makes me feel worse.
I have suffered with arm pain a lot and also convinced myself at one point that I had angina.
I think it is all due to tightening muscles as the pain in my arms comes when my neck is very sore from tension.

Hope this helps

Take care

Spoke to GP. I had to take my son up to hospital sat night with a bad burn to his hand.I spoke to doctor about what i was getting before we left and hes say things do change and because the ecg were ok in the past, well that can change but he also says it could be comming from my gullet...As the gullet can give you alot of chest pain aswell.But to cut a long story short because it was my son,s appointment he says i should get it check out if im still having problems with it.. Any way just wanted to let you no ..

If it would make you feel better, maybe you should get it checked out. I'm sure there's nothing wrong but might be comforting to hear that from a doctor..:D
