Shooting pain under your left breast deffo sounds like you twisted funny. I was told heart pain isn't left sided it's central, BUT don't panic if you get central chest pain because I have it all the time from indigestion, too much exercise (muscles), anxiety, loads of things but none of my central chest pain has ever been my heart.

You could try focusing your attention on things around you instead of things happening inside you, if you force yourself to become more "outwardly aware" you'll start to notice less of the symptoms that scare you. xx
