For the last hour plus I've been sitting here with a dull pain in my left arm and shooting up to my chest. I fear it may be a heart attack, but it could also be strain on my muscle and perhaps anxiety stemming from it. Halp pls

The doctor diagnosed it as anxiety. I'm afraid to go back to the doctors because I am currently uninsured and the last time I was charged 2000 dollars for what was an actual anxiety attack and nothing else.

yeah, please go to a doctor. while people on this board are helpful, i feel medical advice is best given by someone who can actually see you symptoms.

I've been hospitalized twice, since April, once was for a migraine, but the pain wasn't like other migraines I've had. The second time, i thought was a migraine, it turned out that I was having a seizure.

For what it's worth, it's better to owe some money than have it actually be a heart attack.

I had a similar issue a few years ago. Went to the doc and thankfully it was just a pulled muscle. But better to be safe than to die.

I'm in cardiac surgery...get it checked. It could be anything from reflux to an infarction but simple diagnostics will tell you.

in all seriousness there are many causes of chest pain many not serious. but it would be irresponsible for any of us idiots on the internet to say anything but to go and get it checked out. hopefully its nothing

Update: All is fine, its a muscle problem in the chest. I'm just taking the next few days to rest and relax, before returning to exercise next week. I've been overworking myself since January with 40 hours of work and 2-3 hours of exercise a day to go with. I use Rockstars to keep going and thats what lead me to think it was a heart issue because I haven't gone a day without in over a month and the last two days was the longest I've gone without one since January. I realize the need to change my habits with life before I kill myself. I cringe because I feel disgusting with my weight but I need to take the next two days to be a bum when I get home from work instead of going ham during and after.
Thanks all.
