Constant chest pain...


I am sitting here working and trying not to stress out.

I've been having chest pain off and on since last week. I told the dr about it yesterday and she said I was tachycardic and added some tests to my bloods which I did this morning.

It's becoming more and more constant and I don't think it's stopped at all today. I've been working away at my computer for a couple of hours and the pressure is just getting worse and it is really starting to freak me out. I don't know if I can handle this until next monday.

I'm forcing myself to relax and breath deeply because I don't want to stress out my bean.

I've had that in a couple of my pregnancies early on. Feels like your heart is gonna pound out of your chest. It usually goes away...but good that Dr. is testing you for it. Nothing ever came of mine (no cause really...other than pregnancy). I hope you feel better.

Thanks! Makes me feel better that it's not just me and that it may be normal.

i also had pain in my chest and and down my arm, it really freaked me out and happend on and off over a few days around week 5. I think it may have been stress and it has not happend since. I know its really hard but try to relax take time for yourself and I found having a long soak in the bath with a book helped relax me and take my mind off things. If the pain gets any worse though dont take any unecessary risks and get yourself checked again at A & E.
