How can i tell if chest pain is related to anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Excellent question!: Doctors will look at your age, general physical condition, medical history and family history...Listen carefully to how you describe the pain, in your own words, ask you about other symptoms, sources of stress and whether or not you fear some future event or situation...Examine you, review your labs and then go over the probability that your chest pain results from anxiety.
