    Heart attack?

    Hi again.

    So i have had a really upsetting day, quite stressful. I lay down to chill out for a bit and all of a sudden i felt this “twinge” pain in my left arm, like near the bicep type area. I got really freaked out and automatically thought i was having a heart attack.

    i had a panic attack at this point, drank some water to calm down but i’m still highly concerned about the pain i felt.

    I’m now also feeling like an indigestion type pain which is obviously making me spiral more.

    This all started 30 minutes ago. I don’t know how long heart attacks last :(

    I do have a heart condition, Long QT Syndrome, but my symptoms of that are different and i’m pretty confident in knowing if its that or not. Which i highly doubt

    Besides all the things like symptoms, age, lifestyle etc. that rule it out, you wouldn't be here seeking reassurance if you were having a heart attack.

    Definitely not a heart attack

    The pain would not go away if it was your heart. Breathe easy.
