Last week I went to the ER with chest pain. It felt as though my chest was being squeezed along the left side of my ribs to my shoulder blade and then across my chest. They admitted me and ran a lot of tests, EKG, echo cariogram, cadiac cath, blood tests. They let me go with five new prescriptions and told me to follow up with my rheumatologist. I'll also be seeing a cardiologist in a little over two weeks. Anyway, all tests appear to be normal except that during the cathererization, my heart went into a muscle spasm. So, I'm somewhat confused and don't know why they wanted me to see my rheumatologist.

Has this happened to anyone else? I don't have a prior history of heart trouble, but I have had anxiety induced chest pain before.

Any info will be greatly appreciated.
