Hi everyone, I hope someone out there can help me with what I'm dealing since February of this year. I've had chest pain, left arm ache/tingling/hot sensation ... I also sometimes feel nauseaus and anxious about stuff. I did go to a cardiologist and my EKG , 24 hour monitor, ultrasound , stress test came back good so that made me happy. I bee having this left arm ache for a month now and today I'm experiencing some shortness of breath . You guys think this is anxiety? I do have mood swings, stress about money. Thanks guys

Hello and welcome!

I am sorry to hear of your symptoms that are currently bothering you. It is good that you have ruled out anything physical that could be going on.

Did your doctor make a diagnoses of anxiety and talk about your treatment options?

If not, I think this would be a good step to take next, and I would make a consult appointment to discuss this with him/her.

Until then, you can check out our Resources here on the main page (1st post) that is full of great self help anxiety management exercises and ideas.

Reducing your overall stress should help in relief of your symptoms.

Post here with us anytime.:) We care, understand and are here to support!

I always had chest and arm pain from anxiety and GERD - had every heart test done, echo,stress, halter, tons of ekgs, nuclear, everything was fine they told me my heart was perfect - never had a blood pressure issue or anything wrong. I was diagnosed with GERD - have you checked for heart burn - my chest always burned in the center and can also cause your muscle to spasm in your chest - i am on Zantac for GERD and Lexapro for the chest pain due to heart anxiety and after about 3 to 4 weeks of side effects from the lexapro - i was doing pretty good. I have been on it for almost 2 months now and doing good. But I still stress myself out and cause some chest and arm pain. Its crazy the physical symptoms your body can do to you when your stressed
