    Hi Kimmi, how scary for you. I hope the naturopath you're seeing can help.

    Two years ago I had very bad chest pain that radiated down my left arm and made it difficult to breathe. It had all the hallmarks of an impending heart attack. Like you I had those tests and nothing was found. My doc diagnosed it as anxiety attacks, and looking back now at the other symptoms/timing I guess he was right. I was flabbergasted that such physical pain could be caused by anxiety but it's amazing what the body does to protect itself or "shout" at you when something isn't right.

    It may be completely different for you but just want to let you know I'm thinking of you, and keeping my fingers crossed you get some answers soon. Take care xxx

    Are you still seeing a doctor for this pain? Sounds like angina which doesn't show up on ECG's etc unless your having an episode at that time or have suffered prolonged damage.

    Hope it improves soon- sounds awful

    That's the thing, I don't feel stressed or apprehensive about the day at all.... I don't want to send DP the wrong message that I don't want this because I really do.
