Lately i've started to feel this tightness in chest, above my heart, i get super aware of this feeling when it comes, which makes me anxious and very uncomfortable. My heart feels highly reactive, like it gets easily excited, shocked, scared. This feeling comes and goes. it's less profound in the mornings probably coz i take propranalol 20 mg, which im gonna ask my doc to prescribe me for afternoons and evenings as well now. But i m just wondering if anybody else can relate to this feeling? how did/do they deal/dealt with it?

I can only share my experience.

loads of times now I have been to the hospital, had doctors out, etc etc, because I feel that i'm having a heart attack

they have constantly said to me your heart's fine, you're heart's fine- if it was a heart attack, we'd know. it's just your anxiety
it reasures me for a while, but then I get the same fear- and I know I need to stop this because it's wasting valuable time of the hospital staff

last year they spent a whole day doing tests on my heart for absolutely nothing

thank you for sharing your experience with me.. obviously its a potentially volatile trigger topic for you given your experience, yet you chose to read my message and reply in a way that will help me, which speaks to your character, of how brave and kind you are.

Check with your prescriber as this could be a reaction to one or a combination. It may be a physical signal that there is something you need to pay attention to. Obviously your body is trying to tell you something! Wish at times it could just appear on a piece of paper. Whole lot easier!

I'm gonna stay calm for now. Will soon checkin with my doc during my upcoming visit. I've started propranalol twice a day now. And it's really soothed out that knot in my chest. Barely notice it now. Will make sure to tell all this to my doc and see what he thinks. Thanks for reply.
