For some time now if i'm rushing about,i get what feels like muscle going into a spasm.It was happening in the middle of my back,from side to side.But the other day it was in three stages bottom,middle and top right up my neck.If i tack deep breaths it passes.
But i'm worried i'm going to have a heart attack or something.What could it be?

Have you any reason to believe you are susceptable to heart problems? are you over 40, over weight, high blood pressure?Do the spasms last for 10 minutes or more?
I think you should get checked by GP TO BE ON SAFE SIDE but I had very similar symptoms last November. I went to my doctor who diagnosed Anxiety Disorder. I felt silly for being pathetic and refused her offer of drugs. Things have improved now and I'm amazed at the power of the phycological causing physical problems.
Do see a medical specialist asap, but in the meantime, stay calm.
