Rough day. Well, it started out ok. I had an appointment with a customer (which was fine) and when I got back to my desk I had some pangs in my chest. Not sharp stabbing pain, more like a poking feeling of discomfort on the left side of my chest. I have held it together ok, but I'm on the edge. My stomach was upset afterward, and I haven't had the pokes again since. Still feeling spacy and "not quite here", and feeling all over warning signs of a panic attack, like some random numbness (face, hands), hot/cold sensations/etc. Please tell me I'm fine. I think I might be, but I haven't quite convinced myself I don't have a heart issue. :(

I have had those too and mostly it is muscles. I dont think you have to worry. Chest muscles can poke and twitch sometimes.
Try and take a long walk or fall down and do push ups.. in other words... keep busy and trick your body into being relaxed by breathing
slowly.

Just chill and stay busy you are fine. Last time you had a panick attack you where fine right! Just do the breathing techniques and say im am calm I am relaxed for about a min. open your eyes and feel the refreshing sensation, youll be ok..........
