I have similar anxiety about heart attacks. I sometimes get chest pressure which I think is caused by anxiety but I worry when it happens.

I think part of this, for me, is my stepdad died of a heart attack at age 56. I am 59 and I know I don't have his genetic risk factors but I still worry.

Sometimes I wish I had an ekg machine at home so I could see I am okay when these episodes occur.

I have xanax for anxiety but it only makes me sleepy and I still feel anxious.
