Help plz chest pains =[?

wasnt sure if this was in the right place.



im 19 btw.



over the last month ive had really bad sharp chest pains (sometimes felt like i was going to die), this occurs pretty much all over the top part of my chest.. heart area.. left side and right side. it happens alot even when im resting still or goin sleep and it keeps me up till awkward hours in the morning =[



after a while i started to get another feeling of upper stomach pain mixed with constant heartburn, after a while this goes away.. i try to be sick but nothing comes out =[



with that said the only other symptoms i get (recent ones) are stings in certain parts of the body, toes, neck etc.. and in my left arm a feeling of something goin up n down the arm. this shooting feelin can b in other places too(back)



now i have been to hospital 3 times.. twice to my local and once to the city one. all 3 times they have said im ok.



had blood test once + a chest xray.



and ECGs i think? (heart rate)



what should i do? im really scared =[

hello sweetheart: I%26#039;m sorry to hear that you%26#039;re in so much pain and nothing is being done about it. first of all I want you to know that when you panic,it will make your condition worse.fear feeds pain. I know you can%26#039;t help it,especially when the symptoms are new to you,and you%26#039;ve never experienced it before. I%26#039;ve noted your symptom%26#039;s and the test given to you are not enough to diagnose your condition. what you need to ask for upon your return to the doctor is as follows: ( a CBC,plus blood gasses. an MRI. an ECHO,cardiogram, and a EEG. a complete URINE ANALYSIS. if you can, get a complete body scan! this will cover everything. if not, also get the test for arterial blockages, and a thyroid scan. these should reveal your ongoing problem. after and only after all of these test have been given to you,and the results are still negative, then you%26#039;re having what is known as anxiety attacks. the symptoms can be all the same. which means you have a lot on your mind,and problems that are interfering in your everyday life that you are unable to sort out and prioritize alone. you will then need to see a psychotherapist.He or she will help you to get to the root of your problem, and help you to weed out the causes.you will notice that after a few session%26#039;s, the pain will no longer exist. I am able to share this with you because I to have been down this road before. and was also told that there was nothing wrong with me. I persisted and was diagnosed with a hole in my HEART! Write these test down and show them or take the iniative, and tell your doctor,you want these test done .he has no choice,but to comply.

maybe something youre eating is causing you to get severe heartburn...try and track the foods you%26#039;re eating by writing them down and start eliminating things one at a time to see if you can rule it out that way. good luck!

Could it be Pleurisy?



Look it up on Yahoo Health and see what you think of the symptoms. I have had that before, it is scary and painful.



I hope that helps...

I%26#039;d go back to the hospital and don%26#039;t leave until they give you an answer...

There are many other causes of chest pain and upper stomach pain than your heart. At your age it is unlikely for the pain to be cardiac related, although not unheard of. Keep a log of the pain in a notebook...when it starts, how long it lasts, how it feels, what you were doing when it started, what seems to make it better (if anything)...all this can help your doctor track down what is happening.



Some of the things it could be? Possibly your gall bladder, an ulcer, a hiatal hernia, GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease), or any number of other GI illnesses. Try taking a dose of an over the counter stomach medicine, like Mylanta or Maalox when the pain comes on (NOT Pepto Bismol- it can aggravate stomach problems because of its aspirin-like properties!). Whether it helps, or doesn%26#039;t, make sure you tell your doctor about taking it and the results (it will help him/her to diagnose your problem). You may get some relief from sleeping with several pillows under your back in a semi-sitting position, if the pain is caused by GERD or a hiatal hernia. In any case, go to your doctor and get examined.
