How's your anxiety level, Luke? Anxiety can bring on many
illnesses, including heart trouble. My Anxiety made me very ill. Doc put me on Paxil and it saved me.

I'm fine anxiety wise - I take Zoloft everyday. It helped starting, but seems to decrease in effect now. I don't have a doctor anymore to be honest - my neuro treated me bad, so I can't go back to him because he won't help me. I could try to get to see another neuro but I don't know - I do have the MS Center appt Aug 19th. I am frustrated that it is this hard to try and get help! I've waited for the MS Center appt for a month and half now and still have to wait.
I have this feeling that there is something wrong with my chest and its just the docs doesn't want to do tests. It makes me sad knowing some doctors just don't care. My throat is now sore as well; I've noticed that if I start to feel better in my chest (although the weird sensation doesn't leave) and I start to move around, it gets beating faster and the more it beats fast, the worse it hurts. And it doesn't just stop at my chest at that point - it moves to a bad neck and headache. Then add the side effects of Rebif to that. I wish I could get somewhere next week where I can go too and get some help even though I don't have insurance. I've even thought about going to a good ER about an hour away from where I live - but I just don't know what to do anymore! |

I'd try the ER an hour away. Eventhough your initial ER test were fine, a second opinion is worth the trip.
A couple of years ago I had similar chest pains and thinking that it was just the HUG, I waited for 3 days before the pain got suddenly worse and I went into the ER. The ECG and other tests were fine at the ER. The next day I went to my PCP and he suspected pericariditis because it got worse when I laid down flat. He sent me for more tests and he was correct. All it needed was a round of antibiotics and to have some fluid drainied off from the sac around the heart. The pain was gone in minutes. Hope that you get some answers and relief ![]() With love, Erika |
