A member asked:

What are the chances of a heart attack or sca at age 36? i have bad cardio phobia and need some reassurance. 51, overweight, recent chest x-ray and ekg good; had echo and stress test done in 2013. both good. do i need to worry?!?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There are a few genetic conditions that predispose a person to such issues but your prior testing excluded them. Otherwise, at your age pain in your chest is going to be "heartburn" from reflux. A focal health phobia is often a subconscious coverup to another issue. Learning stress management from a life coach can help & in the process you may find the origin of the phobia.
