I have been having chest pain and difficulty breathing on and off for 6 months now. I have seen a cardiologist, gastroenterologist, gynecologist, and a ear nose and throat doctor. They say everything is normal and that it is probably panic attacks. So I saw a therapist for 13 weeks because they said it was anxiety. I do think that i have anxiety related to my symptoms because I am scared. I don’t know what is wrong with me but I don’t think it is normal. I don’t know where to turn.

I Have Chest Pain And Difficulty Breathing?
September 17th, 2009Is Chest Pain Common After Pulmonary Embolism?
September 17th, 2009I am 32 and was diagnosed with pulmonary embolism in both lungs 2 months ago. The pain in my chest went away for about a month but now is returning and very gradually increasing. The pain is only on the left side. I am not yet having trouble breathing, but if it gets much worse I will. I am somewhat nervous about this since the pain was extreme before. I hope I am not having another episode. Is this a common or something I should be concerned about?

September 17th, 2009I’ve been having these pains since I was in middle school. When I’m in shape(like through sports) they get better but has always hurted when I ran, just not as much.

So is he wrong or am I wrong.
Also, I went to my family doctor and told him about it twice. He said it could be heaart burn and he suggested that I cut down on drinking milk. He was wrong and he says don’t worry about it but it’s not like it’s mild pain, it hurts right in the middle of my chest and feels like I got punched there or something.

What Are Physical Symptoms Of A Heart Attack Besides Chest Pains?
September 15th, 2009Heart Attack Warning Signs
Some heart attacks are sudden and intense — the “movie heart attack,” where no one doubts what’s happening. But most heart attacks start slowly, with mild pain or discomfort. Often people affected aren’t sure what’s wrong and wait too long before getting help. Here are signs that can mean a heart attack is happening:
Chest discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts more than a few minutes, or that goes away and comes back. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain.
Discomfort in other areas of the upper body. Symptoms can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
Other signs may include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.
As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, and back or jaw pain.
Learn the signs, but remember this: Even if you’re not sure it’s a heart attack, have it checked out (tell a doctor about your symptoms). Minutes matter! Fast action can save lives — maybe your own. Don’t wait more than five minutes to call 9-1-1.”
Yes, it is possible to have one in your 30′s but usually a pre-existing condition exists and/or a family history of heart disease. If you are having chest pain you should make sure you do regular breast exams at home and discuss your concerns with your doctor.
