[|Human|] I have woken up with immense pain in my chest when I breathe in. Caused me to breathe fast and panic. Hands started to tingle. Feels like my chest has someone sat on it. Hurts to take a deep breath. Lay flat for 2 hours and tried to sleep. My head is pulsating like someone has their hands round my throat. I have light medication for high blood pressure. I m currently stressed with life anyway. Had an arguement a couple of days ago and someone strangled me causing me slight bruising and a stiff neck (sore throat and swollen for a couple of days) I m worried I m having a panic attack or at risk of a Stoke or even heart attack. I m 38 female. Never smoked. Chest still heavy and hurts when breathing in. Any advise? Please x
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. By your history and description, possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms is more. But better to rule out cardiac cause because you are having hypertension. So first get done ECG and 2d echo. If both are normal than no need to worry about heart diseases. You are having stress related symptoms mostly. So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counseling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic Chat Doctor.  So don't worry, you will be alright. Avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. First rule out cardiac cause and consult psychiatrist. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
