Anxiety

Hello I need to ask a question. One night my heart rate was extremely high, so I went to the hospital and it turned out to be 190 bpm. the doctors told me I was fine and that it was a panic attacks and gave me adivane to calm me down. For two days after my chest seemed tight and my left arm seemed heavier and had a weird tingling feeling in it. I went back to the ER and they told me I was fine. Another two days later I still feel the same so I went back, they did a bunch of test on me and said I was Healthy and told me I have anxiety. They gave clonazepam. I still feel different, have shortness of breath from time to time, I am constantly feeling my heart ( fast and slow rates) and have a tightness in my left arm and chest feels empty with pain. Also I keep thinking about it and wondering if im going crazy, If I am going to be like this forever, having headaches, and can hardly think straight. Also I have a hard time sleeping worrying im going to die in my sleep. The clonazepam helps a little bit but I still worry a lot. Is this normal or am I going insane and overthinking ?????

Hi and can totally understand what you are dealing with. You should feel good about the doctor ruling out a heart problem. I have felt that way so many times and have suffered from panic attacks for twenty years. Hang in there with your meds, and if it suits you, deep breathing exercises slow the heart rate. Glad you are here with the group.
