A member asked:

On 20 mg celexa (citalopram) for panic/anxiety that developed after one time dxm od. panic attacks gone but still tightness in left side chest. anxiety cause this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely yes: Do you carry any other more significant forms of anxiety such as GAD, PTSD, suffer from nightmares, flashbacks, etc.? You sound as if you've been through a workup to rule out bad stuff so I think there is a good chance that the left sided chest tightness is not cardiac in origin. Talk to your doctor. They may wish to reassure you themselves if they've already done the proper workups.
