Pain in the arm and chest.

2023-05-29 10:31:44
I've been on medication for anxiety for the past month, Betacap tr 40 in the mrng and paxidep cr12.5 at night after food. My main triggers are chest and left arm pain. I took ecg, echo and tmt tests on the first week of april everything was normal. I need help in differentiating anxiety related pain and heart related pain. Because this is one of my main triggers for panic attacks. The pain I'm feeling in my chest lasts only for seconds that too in random spots and pain in the arm goes away when I hold it in a certain position, also arm gets numb at certain times.

Hi there, A detailed medical and psychiatric history is always needed for every case.Also is the detailed mental status examination of the case to come for a diagnosis and its management accordingly.
Next Steps
You have undergone some of the tests to rule out some of the symptoms which can be associated with the problems related to heart.
Health Tips
Do get the advice from the cardiologist again and start the treatment from a mental health professional if cardiac symptoms are excluded. Be positive in your thoughts. Take adequate sleep and balanced and healthy diet.
