Need to examine: What you described warrants an evaluation. It may have been anxiety reaction but it is not worth taking a risk. You should consult your doctor to ascertain if further evaluation may be needed. Wish you good health!

In JAN I had bad chest/shoulder pain and went to ER. They said anxiety. Pain in arm continued for a month. Now I can't catch breath, & have itching/burning in upper left part of abs. Heart issue ruled out. Xanax/PPIs don't treat. Is it really stress?
