Anxiety & stress: I'm glad your tests came out normal -- but you still have the problem. Anxiety can cause many kinds of physical symptoms, including chest pressure & pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, numbness, tingling and even pain in extremities. Please ask your doctor about this possibility, & for referrals. Psychologists & psychiatrists can help you deal with anxiety & resultant symptoms.
