[|Human|] is it possible to have suffered a heart attack after being scared?  I walked into a dark room during the night and a family member screamed as I turned on the light, scared me so badly Ive had a feeling on constriction thruout my chest and arm ever since. Should I be concerned?  I am a female, 48 yrs old, no other heart problems
[|AI|]  Hia feeling of heaviness and constriction throughout chest can be a stable angina (not heart attack) or it can be because of panic attack also thorough history is neededlike do you have family h/o of cardiac ailment show long did the chest heaviness lasted did you ever felt any pain or heaviness in chest on walking which got relieved on resting I would suggest you to go for an ECG test which is a basic test most likely the episode was because of panic but yet we have to rule out cardiac disease if you are a smoker it has to be ruled out at the earliest thanks
