Hello, I'm new here.
I'm a 24 year old unemployed male graduate living with my perents.
I am overweight, and fairly sedentary.
I have Cerebral Palsy mainly effecting my right leg which makes it hard for me to get much exercise.
A few weeks before Christmas I stated haveing weird sensations in my chest. I was up late. I had a few days ago been up all night infact.
These weird tight panicky sensations kept me up all night, until I started experianceing chest pain that realy rather hurt. So I eventually woke my perents and eventually called an Ambulance fearing the worst.
After a fun night in the Hospital following a Chest Xray, ECG and a few blood tests they said "Meh, probably Musculoskelital chest pain, off you go with pain killers"
Few days later I went to the GP who couldent find anything much wrong and suggested it might be Anxiety. Now, I honestly cant think of anything I was Anxious about aside from my health so... I dont know how it could have started...
Anyway, then I went on to have the flu over christmas and assumed my chest pains were just part of that. Well, now the Flu has gone and my chest still hurts... so I have made another doctors apointment for thursday.
My chest hurts on the right hand side mainly, though it sometimes swaps to the left. I also have trouble sleeping and occasionaly get indigestion type feelings at night.
The pain in my chest seems to be... near the surface.. like its in the chest fat or something...
Anyway... I keep trying to tell myself its probably nothing too urgent.. I just need to relax and go to the doctor and listen to them.
But... I have been Googleing my symptoms and... if it wasent Anxity related to begin with... Theres now clearly an anxity element so...
I dont know, does this sound like anxity to you, can it cause real top of chest pain? How much should I be conserned that I need to go demand more tests andwhatnot.
