Yes me too, i get it all the time, and have finally learnt to ignore it. If you are really worried, i would get a quick test from the doctors, then that way, when it comes back clear you will know it is definitely just from your anxiety (like mine was) and you can learn to ignore it as well. Once you are not scared of the pains anymore, they seem to go away.

Stress and anxiety can cause chest pain because they both put pressure on your central nervous system which as a result puts pressure on your cardiovascular system. The stress level can elevate your blood pressure and as a result the heart rate speeds up which may cause you to experience chest pain.

If you feel as though you are receiving these symptoms then you should try by whatever means possible in order to reduce anxiety and stress levels. Prescribed medication can help but it won't guarantee you anything and can have side effects. Not to mention the ongoing costs associated.

There are a number of alternative treatment programs that have proven to work very well for a few people I know personally. Can't remember on the top of my head but if you pm or email me I should be able to find out for anyone that's interested.
