Stressed? Anxious? Heart? or Just Panicking? Or could it be something else?

Just wondered if anyone suffers or has suffered these same symptoms as me. I was checked out by docs last year, had to have an angiogram, (all checked out fine). And my GP said he could'nt find what the problem is.

But I still get a dull pain in the upper part my chest just below the collar-bone on the left-hand side. Seems to get worse with exercise, I go extemely pale, and have to sit down. Also a bit stressed at the mo, had a v.bad crushing pain in my chest at the wkend, hurt when I breathed in.Could it be stress related, considering whether or not to badger my GP with it again.

Sounds like panic attacks although you said it gets worse with exercise so??

If the Angiogram was clear there can't be much wrong with you.

Do you feel panicky?

It is worth going to the doctors again. Maybe they can do an exercise test, when they monitor you while you exercise on a treadmill.

It could be stress related, but you need to rule out anything more sinister.

If it is stress related, maybe you can look into ways of dealing with that stress?
