Anxiety!!

Hey all! I’m new to this group but these past couple months ive been experiencing alot of anxiety! It comes and goes but when ever it starts happening I get like a constant pain in my left side of my chest/breast and it will stay for like a good week its like a tighting/band feeling and then I will also get tingling/numbness in my arms/legs and it can last for a couple days at a time is this normal!? My doctor tells me its very normal and sometimes it takes awhile for your chest to stop hurting because of the sore muscles that were tensed up. I went to the doctor yesterday im starting a new medicine this morning as I havent been on anything. My heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels were all good but I still freak out that the chest pain/numbness is more than just anxiety!

I get this too! It is a scary feeling but more times then not it’s not anything to worry about! Last couples months I was in and out of the hospital with the same thing but just told me it’s anxiety ! I started councelling and got in with a psychiatrist

@Bay-leigh Yes super scary! I think I have health anxiety as well so the chest/breast pain makes me think heart attack or cancer and my doctor is like its not you are okay but its so hard😭

I get chest pain when I’m over working. So if I have a long day out walking or exercising. What I used to do is much harder for me. I get winded and tired faster. The pain is in my lower rib cage area and feels tight too. It’s comes and goes, can stay for 4 hrs or a day. It’s really not a fun experience so I understand your anxiety. It scared me at first too. But was told it is my body adjusting.

I have been there what has helped me is eating healthy smoothies in the morning 🌄 getting up before the kids reading Gods word and just be in peace before the day starts 🙏

@Sandra yes for sure! Reading Gods word helps so much! I might start drinking smoothies that sounds yummy!
