It could be anxiety. As far as I experienced, when the first time I had it, the "fear" automatically striked me. All I could think of is pain and death. Even when the doctors told me that there's...
I have encountered almost exactly as you did. I also had pain in my right side, sometimes dull, sometimes sharp. It radiates from back to chest, or arms. I'm blaming it to my work (graphic artist)...

Same thing with me. Going out on a vacation or somewhere else makes my symptoms lessen or disappear. They seem to go away when I'm busy or when I am talking to someone. I WANT to believe most of my...
