Real sensations: Real sensations of pain are caused by effects of stress hormones and chronic inflammation from an Anxiety Disorder. That's a reason to deal w/ it ASAP. Over time actual tissue/organ damage occurs. Don't feel dismissed when a provider says it's not your heart - it's anxiety. This is good! So far, your heart has not been damaged. Do deal w/ anxiety. A CBT therapist can teach skills and add Rx PRN.
