Hi there
just wanted to say that when i get a fright and get really freaked out about something, I always feel like i cant breath and that Im going to faint..it can last for ages . like days. Also I get random pains and aches and over time I have learned to calm myself by remebering all the times that I have thought something really serious was up but then realising later it wasnt and that I had overreacted just becuase I had too much adrenaline!
If the pain was a serious thing that needed your attention straight away, it wouldnt have gone away again just like that. From reading your post, your fear is causing all your symptoms since the pain happened Im sure of that.
Dont worry hun, I m going to say check with the dr ...but thats cos I have HA too!!! LOL

Hi
Calm down and take some deep breaths if you can: you don't describe what the chest pain was like but I definitely think that you are not going to die with this, as you say if you can talk and type then it isn't life threatening. But why did you get it? Are you anxious about something in particular? Or have you or anyone around you had a cold or chest infection recently? Do you smoke? If it comes again then I think you should seek medical advice because you need reassurance about what this is. If it is a chest infection (which it might be) then you need to get it treated.
Whatever it is I am sure you will be fine.
Take care Thyme

Hi again
I'm glad you had the scans xrays etc 'cos if they have come back ok then we needn't worry that it is your heart and so you don't have to panic about it.
Nevertheless, I think chest pain should always be investigated and that's what your doc is doing so try not to worry (er...like that's easier said than done...).

I totally know how you feel, my family and friends all think I am either mad or attention seaking, all I want to do is shout from the rooftops ..... do you think I want to be like this?????? Nooooooooo. I wish I could stop analysing everyting from ill feelings, aches and pains to strange noises in my car, anything I can worry about I do and it drives everyone mad including me cause I feel that is just what is going to happen. I am sure everything will be ok, let us know what the doctor says.

My mother-in-law got rushed to hospital just before Xmas with a supected heart attack and she underwent loads of tests and scans and it turned out to be costochondritis. The doc told her the symptoms are excatly the same so it's very difficult to tell them apart. Her chest is still tender to touch now.
