Why do I get this pain in my chest on the left side when I climb stairs or even shout? I've done all the tests like ECG, Echo, TMT, and CT angio, and they all came back normal. The CT showed no blockage but mentioned deep myocardial bridges. My cardiologist says it's not angina or heart disease but put me on Beta lock 0.25 twice a day. Anytime I get startled awake or shout when I'm angry, the pain starts again, spreading to my left back, arms, and neck. It's so confusing because the doc says it's nothing serious, but the pain keeps coming back and it's worrisome. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks, which can manifest as chest pain and other physical symptoms. The Beta Block medication prescribed by your cardiologist can help manage these symptoms by reducing the effects of adrenaline on your body. In addition to the medication, it may be helpful to practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, and regular physical activity. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and possibly a referral to a mental health professional for additional support. Remember to take your Beta Block medication as prescribed and try to incorporate stress management techniques into your daily routine to help alleviate your symptoms.

View allI'm wondering if you can help me out. I was stretching my neck and suddenly felt a squeezing sensation in my upper chest. Now, I'm noticing a bit of pain in my chest whenever I stretch or do activities that involve my chest. My breathing seems fine, though. Should I be concerned about this chest pain, or is it something that might go away on its own? Looking forward to your advice.

I'm feeling really overwhelmed and unsure what's going on with my health. Whenever I do even a little bit of work, I start feeling pain all over my body and feel really weak. My heart beats really fast, like once it was 165 bpm and then it came down to 115 bpm after 10 minutes. I've been told I have high blood pressure and cholesterol, but my ECG, TMT, and echo tests all came back normal. The ECG did show some changes in areas called Avf, but they've been like that for 9 years. On top of that, I've been dealing with severe anxiety and OCD for about 12 years now. I'm really worried if this might be a heart problem or if it's all just because of my anxiety. Every time I try to do any work, the weakness and palpitations hit me, along with a full body ache. I really need some advice on what's happening.
