Anxiety, Stress and Chest pain

- In this video i discuss the mechanisms by which stress and anxiety can cause chest pain. Sometimes this pain can be indistinguishable from angina. If you would like to speak with me please get in touch via my website www.yorkcardiology.co.uk or my email is yorkcardiology@gmail.com
I find it simply unbelievable that a highly-skilled Cardiologist (or other experts in their discipline) would take the time to post videos aimed at helping others. And yet, it happens.
Why?
yeah fr
RUclips pays them
Some people just care
@@veniceflytrap Because I haven't worked with, as an employee or as a patient, any doctor who seemed interested in finding the source of a problem. They barely read your chart, prescribe some damaging medication and quickly get out of the room to get to another patient.
Any hypochondriacs?
Here 😞
Having chest pain all across whenever I bend. Scared as shit it’s been a couple of hours already
@@maribelguzman0419 this sounds like a pneumothorax, you might want to check that out by a doctor, how tall are you?
Curtis Eisenbeis it went away after i slept but i’m 4’11
I think i am and i worried about it
God has given this man the gift of love and compassion for his fellow man! We really appreciate you Dr! Godbless you and your family ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I have suffered with depression and anxiety for many years, but the chest pain, shortness of breath and palpitations really became noticeable since August last year then eased and started again a couple months ago. It has never been this bad, and the worst part is that no one could even suggest something that made any sense.
Which made me feel frustrated angry and feeling like I was losing my mind. I vowed that I would never waste my time with doctors anymore.
I am so happy I stumbled across this video because, now everything finally makes sense.
So called professional like to talk about we shouldn't Google our symptoms, but this is the second mystery I have solved, this year alone, between Google and RUclips.
Thanks Doc. You have no idea how much extra stress and anxiety you saved me.
I appreciate you very much 😊❤️
Hiii. I wanna talk with you regarding this . Please
Same situation too any one to talk to ?
Hey I’m dealing with anxiety for about a month now and it’s really discomforting and I just got these chest pain on the left side where my heart is and I start to get scared but looking at all the comments seems I’m not the only one and that brings me comfort 😌
I’m dealing with exactly the same. My left chest area is killing me and google is telling me heart attack. I just want to find a way to make it stop when it happens. If you find a way, please share
@@amberfeggans5422 hey amber, hopefully you are doing better, but if your not here’s a little reassurance. I have been having pain in my left side, racing heart beat, and it’s always because I am anxious. Today I went to the hospital and did an ekg, all came back normal. It will also feel like I can’t breathe at times, and when they checked oxygen it was 100. Just know that it may seem like nobody understands what you are experiencing but in the end people really do. It seems comforting at times when people do care and not at all when people don’t. Please let me know how you are doing now 👍
Yea it hurts. I actually wish I was dead. I cant calm myself down. I’m always on edge about nothing. I cry a lot. I was never a big cryer
@@LILYBEAR14 you can do this I believe in you. I have changed my motivation to "if something happens to me inleast people around me will help" and that is a huge difference
@@Dailydoseanimals thank u :>)
Please don’t stop uploading. You’re a life saver. ❤️
This video was a game changer for me. I went months with chest pain and difficulty breathing. Dr couldnt tell me much more than that I just had anxiety. 3 trips to ER with heart rate of 145bpm and 3 different medications. I found this video and started focusing on belly breathing and its made a huge difference! No longer on the meds! Thank you so very much!
So it was anxiety?
Hope your good , it difficult I get the same issues , anxiety etc x
Do you have bad anxiety or any panic attacks ? Cause. I do really bad
@@DeeBandz3 me also really bad
@@gedman9527 aw man I hope you get better
I definitely get the fast thumping heart beat , and pain when I lay on my left side and it feels tender when I apply pressure on the left side of my chest . What you explained is exactly what happens to me I'm so happy I found this video . I also get other symptoms you explained .
Dr Gupta, you're simply a godsend. Thank you so very much for taking your time to provide free medical advice/education to us all. You da man👍
This doctor is heaven sent, today am getting good sleep because of this video
Dr ,you are an absolute heaven sent !!!! I wish we have someone like you in Australia .
These are highly valuable videos to help reduce panic & anxiety on such a scary feeling, thank you.
Horrible I hate it
@Fumiko dawg are you okay?!
I wish my doctor was this calming 😞 he’s sooo careful with his words, in a sense that doesn’t cause panic.
Example: when I was 17 I had my first panic attack in a doctors office. Consequently my blood pressure had a high reading, my doctor then immediately starts off with the heart attack and stroke scares. In my opinion doctors should be very careful with how they say things of that magnitude.
Because of that I developed this crippling fear of checking my bp and seeing doctors. This doctor does such a great job of keeping you calm and explaining things. Godbless. Working on my bp and anxiety and fear. Hope to overcome it and post my testimony here one day
Thank you so much for this video. I am suffering from health anxiety after a recent cancer diagnosis and cancer gene diagnosis. I have been suffering from chest pains of late and have been checked by a cardiologist. Everything is fine with my heart. My scans have also all been clear. I did not believe that anxiety could give me these symptoms, despite numerous doctors telling me so. Thank you for explaining this. You have described my symptoms to a tee.
Hw r u now
I always find this Doctors information fascinating and he put's it in layman terms. Thanks Doc.
Just... Thank you ❤
I've just watched 4 or 5 of your videos in a row and I found all of it so easy to understand and super informative, I actually took notes! I have anxiety that's gotten worse, a breathing issue I've had for the most of the past 20 years that no doctor can figure out (all that has helped at all is a chiropractor) and I get depressed. I always have said I need to work on it, and now after watching your videos I finally feel like I know WHAT to do. Thanks so much. Most doctors do not explain anything in such great detail, I really appreciate it!
Just watching this made my anxiety go away... I know not forever, but still it clears that part of the mind a Lil.. ❤
Love your videos! Thanks for being such a caring cardiologist
You are an amazing doctor with such a kind heart. Thank you so much for all you do...you have helped me tremendously!
The bloke is great , he's thinks outside the circle. Calmed my anxious mind many a time 👍
Finally... A reasonable answer. Thank you doctor
Oh dear Lord. Exactly what I needed to hear two weeks ago. 🙌🏻
Bless you Dr Gupta! You are a godsend. True compassion for those of us who are worriers.
Thanks for taking your time and making these videos. I am glad I found your channel.
Thank u
When I have an anxiety attack it feels like I'm being poisoned by my own adrenaline.
Kim Evans perfect example
I gotta go to the doctor in 2 days I'm 13 and I hope good news because I'm too young I'm like a kid and I'm new so I dont think I gotta have that kind of heart or chest problems maybe I'm just having anxiety because when I play fortnite I rage and I bite my ipad
Same here
Same here It felt like a surge of Hot flush in my abdomen area.
It becomes your sour companion but I find more I learn about it more it gets easier on my body and less freaking out. As Dr Gupta says, as long as you are all clear there is nothing to worry much as you know it is just a visceral fear which simply mimicks heart attack.
Thank you for explaining this with compassion. I have been getting checked for many things and often when it is blamed on anxiety or stress I feel like our feelings are dismissed. Thank you
Sometimes I feel like a nuisance at the ER. I can see it in the nurses face or doctor when being dismissed and it’s frustrating and sad because the physical symptoms are very real and scary regardless of whether or not they are benign
I'm from India and thanking you from my Heart....
You truly are an amazing person! Thanks for all your excellent information!!
Thank you Dr York. Your information is really worthwhile and vital in understanding this health issue.👍🏾
Clear, understandable, informative explanation! Thank you for your time.
I can’t even sleep anymore because I keep getting sharp chest pains everyday and night in my sleep for a month now!
Experiencing the same it's awful
S H do you have anxiety and depression as well? I’m not sure if that’s what causing my chest pains. Oh my gosh last night I kept waking up with sharp pain it was so frustrating
@@iexist7408 yes I experience anxiety I have just been experiencing a crushing chest pain it's so scary you get so sucked into the feeling you feel so convinced your having a heart attack I get the sharp pain too sometimes it feels as though my heart is cramping/squeezing but I get sharp pains up my left side upper back I've had all the necessary tests, an ecg scan which is normal and a heart monitor that I wore for 24 hours they couldn't find anything wrong with these 2 tests but I still can't relax. Have you spoke to your doctor?
S H oh my. Well I haven’t seen a doctor yet. It’s expensive so I don’t think I want to go
i get that to i freeze up
We are blessed to have you doctor , to help us understand the symptoms better. Thank you. God bless you.😊
I appreciate this video more than you will ever know. Thank you so much for helping calm down my anxiety. I still havent ruled anything out yet but i needed some optimism
We love and greatly appreciate what u are doing to help heart patients. Greeting from the USA
This is the type of explanation we should be getting from our doctors. A huge weight has been lifted watching this video now that I understand what is actually going on when my chest pain occurs. Thank you doctor! 😄
Do you also having panic attacks or anxiety? My heart is beating really hard or loud that I can feel it in my stomach neck actually everywhere :( Doctors says it’s becoz of Gas.
I have inccured over 18,000 in hospital bills in the span of 2 months going to the emergency room 5 times. Ekg is fine, chest xray fine but not once did anyone ask me about being stressed or having anxiety. I had to research and discover this on my own.
I remember this video from so long ago, when I was watching you for entertainment. This is why your videos are so popular. They're truly helpful, educational and comforting. You're a genius, Doc or divinely guided. Maybe a little bit of both. And we're blessed. Thank you.
thanks for another great video. your videos have helped me a lot.
I cant thank you enough, ive went to the doctors 4x and the first 2 they did a checkup for anything unusual and found everything was okay. And the other 2 i went i had blood tests done and everything was okay. Ive been told its anxiety or other problems and sometimes i get too scared. And this really helped thanks!
Thank you Dr. Sanjay Gupta for ALL your caring efforts in helping us. Love & Peace Always
Always a pleasure... you are a brilliant Doctor and I thank you for all your knowledge
This has helped me ten fold! I had this a few times when I was over breathing massively and my heart spasmed! It didn’t give me any pain at all. And as soon as I breathed slower it went away. This has helped! Especially the spasm bit!! Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻
What u r doing to treat spasm
Just better food... stuff with more vitamins. Fruits and stuff.. water. Magnesium. Taking my time with exercise so I don’t over breath
Actually how did u find initially u are getting coronary spasms?
I just linked it to anxiety. When I would over breath or take too much air in my heart would palpitate ones or twice. But doing things like a few yoga exercises and other stuff it is fine. Only when I would take too much air in and having high anxiety it would do it.
I thank you for your knowledge. Stay inspired
Great info. Thank you very much for all the time you put in to explain the cardiac system
Guys try doing cardio, long walks, training in general relases excess adrenaline you have builtup in your system, basically as long as you excercise you should be just fine, anxiety is a constant fight to stay afloat in my experience.... Good luck guys
Your way of explaining is so incredibly well done
@wkwkwk koo This must have been the latest reply I ever gotten. I almost forgot I was watching this when I used to suffer from anxiety
Our 16 year old deals with anxiety, is in therapy & has complained the past few days of discomfort as you describe. Thanks for the info.
Fear and anxiety are very uncomfortable. Thank You, Doctor for your 🙏🏻🫀explanation and Truth in Power!💁🌸
Ye dr kia kehre hai samajh nhi aaya
We are incredibly grateful for your advices Dr. Gupta!
Omg you seriously have given me so mu h helpful information. This video felt like you were speaking to me. I've been dealing with this issue for 2 years and I've had every cardiology test done and nothing has been wron6with my heart.
Hw r u now
Thanks again .. may god continue to bless you and your family
Thank you so much. Wonderful and awesome video. Such an inspiring doctor.
Thanks so much for all your videos and explanations, your a new breed of doctor, one that cares! Kudos to you sir!
You are right. Not many of them seem to really care. It surprises me how dismissing and unapproachable many of them are.
Been wanting a video like this thanks so much!
I have this kind of pain from 2018. Went to a cardio doctor, but everything was ok. He gave me some breathing exercises. I was guessing this could be due to anxiety and stress. Now I understand properly . Thank you so much for explaining in such a good way.
Had you done TMT test ??
I have this too pain in my pec muscles and it radiates into my shoudkers too I try the breathing but it makes me worse
This video helped a ton. Hope you have a fantastic life.
Thank you so much doctor. Bless you for giving such information here without expectations any return 💕
I was diagnosed with panic attacks for around 11 years. I had a terrible episode at work with lasted for over 30 minutes. My boss called EMS and my heart rate was in the upper 200s. I went to the hospital and had another episode that night. I was diagnosed with SVT ( specifically ARNVT). It was finally noted on 2 separate EKGs. I had an EP study and heart ablation. Always listen to your body.
Thank you so much for your comment and for watching the video. Please join me for live free chats on my Facebook page (type yorkcardiology@gmail.com in Facebook search) - I will be able to answer your questions there
I dont wanna hv an ablation😳😳😳
You have a massive fan base of majority Hypochondriacs... but THIS sits perfectly for what’s going on in my life. Ima have to eat low in acid foods and see if this works. I went to the ER last year and said everything was perfect! I’m 28. My anxiety is out of control
Hi There Dr. I've just had a series of tests on my heart to find out what is the source of my chest pain. My heart has been ruled out as a source which is great. However, I'm still having chest pain. Your video has sparked some good questions that I want to ask both my Doctor and my Cardiologist during my follow up visit. Thank you so much for your video.
I have panic atteck couple month and from that i have being have panic actteck
Thanks for explaining what is happening to me. I have been tested however nobody has taken the time to explain what is causing my pain. You are a step above Dr. Sanjay
cardiologist of the year
Century
All time ❤
On god
This is the first time that I learned the acid-base levels in our body can play a significant role in our hearts and arteries
A common phenomenon which is finally addressed. THANK YOU
You're helping me so much. I wish there was something I could do for you. Wishing you wellness. Thank you.
Thank you so much for putting this video out. I have noticed my breathing has been deeper and more rapid over the last few weeks. This has been such a help as I have Anxiety over my chest pains and I'm going to a cardiologist next Monday to check me just to be sure. Your videos have been a blessing to me to calm me down and just relax. Thank you so so much!!!
Hello buddy...? Have u got it checked...? What your doctor said..?
@@lifehope4201 just anxiety, i got ultrasound, heart monitor 30 days, ekg, stress test my pains went away because i knew i was good. its crazy what the mind does to you
@@TheMexicaNigga good to hear....take care buddy....I am experiencing the same....
How did it go
Im good, i dont worry about it anymore. Anxiety can be a bitch yall! Youll get through it and be stronger c:
He seems lovely 😊 what a nice man
I have to say this is the best video to help me yet that or it just made me feel better. ive been having palpitation issues that have become almost debilitating and lately getting on beta blockers not by choice , i have been miserable due to a dual acke in my left chest. this info has been the only answer that ive found any ware about it. hopefully ill have a little piece of mind wile I wait for my actual appointment 2 and a half weeks away total of three just to get some test.(Ive had no actual tests yet) its been driving me nuts waiting. Three trips to emergency with no answers :( almost went again. until i listened to this and a good part of my anctiousness subsided pretty much instantly. ill update later. Thank You sir and bless you for what your doing!!
I hope you see my comment because this helped me a lot honestly!
Thank you for your time and efforts and everything 💙💙💙💙
Thank youuuuuu ❤️
very helpful...thanks doctor
Thank you. Very very much doctor Sanjay Gupta for this of your informative video free of cost thank you once again
thanks afzal!
Thank you so much Doctor. May God blessed you more🙏
Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge.
I started having discomfort soon as I started watching this...all in the mind
WeirdArtSociety Fox hmmmm
😂😂😂😂
Can angina last 40 min to a hour?
This is true, I found a lot of people do develop symptoms after listening or reading too much about anxiety or symptoms of heart issues. If someone is getting better, I would never mention anything that may trigger anxiety or panic attack. Dr. Gupta explains #panicandanxiety so simply. I really enjoy his explanations. No frills, anyone can understand it.
I wasn't even hyperventilating
Thank you for another great video!!!! Love all the healpful information.
thanks.. i really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment:-)
York Cardiology thank you so much .. ive had a tons of ekg xrays blood test also a stess test but still sometimes still get bad chest pain and heart burn.
This was so very helpful! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Is it just me or when I think about my chest while thinking at the same time , for a few seconds and then my chest hurts , is this normal ?
Thank You for your wonderful video, which kind of puts things into perspective.
Over the last 3 years, I have taken my self off to A & E with chest discomfort. On both occasions I was given an ECG plus blood tests and was given the all clear. Last year I was experiencing the same, so I had a consultation with my GP who referred me to a Cardiologist, who gave me a phone consultation to rule out anything sinister. Once again, the results were clear. I am by nature a very anxious person and over the last four days, I have had some dull aching in the upper quadrant on the left side of my chest. I have now made another appointment with my GP as a face to face consultation, so that he can actually examine me.
Do you only have the pain on the upper left breast area of the chest or also on your shoulder /upper arm? Is it sharp pain, pressing, pressure, soreness, dull ache, squeezing pain?
@@starmkd18 It tends to be on the LH Side mainly. No pressure or squeezing pain.
@@johncraggs5762 if it's only sore/dull ache on the LH side radiating towards the shoulder and upper left arm it might be from a recent panic/anxiety attack
Do you have shortness of breath when doing exercise?
@@starmkd18 Only the usual bit of fatigue but certainly no gasping for breath at all.
Thank you so much! Your videos are very informative! More blessing to you and your family. ♥️
Sometimes supressing any emotional traumas, or any type of personal stress for a long period time, it will eventually manifest in physiological symptoms ie: panic attacks and anxiety attacks.
But does it make your chest burn for days? It only burns worse and kills the most when I think about it too much. I went to 2 separate emergency clinics and all blood tests ekgs and X-ray was fine my chest hurts all day all night I want it gone!
@@tristanp7416does it still burn?
@@Jay-uo1sn only when I think about it best way to get over it is to just ignore it best you can. Deffo get it checked out first tho to be safe!
Wow! Thank you 🙏🏼 so much doctor your a blessing! I was soo worried then you mentioned hyperventilating! I only just had this last two days! My Aunt with cancer had a bad update I took it way hard & I thought my heart was just broken! Now I feel I understand! 💕
Thank you so much for making this it has really helped me. Literally doing God's work
I have researched and found out that shrooms are very helpful , it has really helps to reduce anxiety and depression . I would love to try magic mushrooms but I can't easily get some , Is there any realiable source I can purchase one
Psilocybin containing mushrooms saved my life . The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit . It has also helped me survive depression .
@Christopher Harland Does he ship?
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot , I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well.
@Christopher Harland Came across the comments about dr.jeromespores and I must say he's a genuis.
@@kutevince7347 Tripping is not all that bad but one has to find a good mycologist to teach you the right things you need to
know
God bless u man.
So passionate, very good Doctor.
And we are blessed to have you; Thank You🙂
This explains a lot! I have had open heart surgery last year and I still have pain. I have been under a lot of stress and you described everything that I have felt! So many ER bills and I have never had an explanation. Thank you for your time in explanation. I will do your breathing exercises.
Maylene Mcdonald how much does a trip to the ER cost?
***** more than what I can afford. Especially so many trips in a year. Still paying off my first bill.
Maylene Mcdonald damn im sorry that sucks, its free here in canada thats why im wondering.
***** one of the many reasons why I hate the Obama Health-care! One bill for a day in the ER is over $5K!!! That doesn't include the lab works and x-ray, etc....
Maylene Mcdonald omg thats terrible, im over here still pissed about the $45 they charged me for ambulance. but we pay 13% in taxes though which is why we get free healthcare. not sure what the tax rate in the u.s is
Thank you very much Dr Gupta for the very informative talk. I wish other specialists also upload similar RUclips videos like yours in their own speciality. Unfortunately in Australia , the vast majority of the specialists offer very limited explanation .I suspect. it is to do with how medicine is practiced in the two countries
Very helpful, I was rushed into hospital with chest pains on Monday, my blood pressure was extremely high and I do have hypertension, but it wasn’t a heart attack thank god. I needed someone to explain better what was happening and you just did. Thank you
Are you doing better?
Well Explained 👌👌👌.. Cardiologist of the century...
What a valuable video...thx Doc
thank you!
this video was informative!
Thank you so much doctor...Love your explaination....I feel more relieve now.....
Wow this is really amazing thank you for this message because i was so stressed because i didn't understand if it's a heart attack or what, sometimes i feel so tired in my heart that i can't even stand, now i have understood you thank you so much
Great video!
Thank you so much , Doctor :)
You have done a great favour to me with this video. I have lived in darkness despite being checked by multiple cardiologists. I feel much better.
chest pain if persist since one year so it's mean its cause of Anxiety or others than heart problem? actually I often feel chest pain even in shouldr and left arm sometime since one year but wen I walk running or climbing stairs then pain goes aways and when I sitting on chair or laying on bed then I feel again pain in my chest near heart don't know it's Anxiety or spondylitis pain..
@@UsmanAli-si7rz Hope your doing well. Any answers to why you have gone through this?
I'm scared mine is heart related. I also get the arm pain and pain near my jaw and neck. I pray it's not heart, but most my Google searches say it is...
I'm waiting to see a cardiologist.
@@splash5974 ok then go to cardiologist but keep in mind one thing don't be scared I having this pain since 2020 Feb. and still but I m used with it doctor suggested me to go with Angio but I refused and still m alive and healthy doing daily routine works etc. Don't see google it's totally bullshit .
By the way I m using Garlic, ginger ,lemon, apple vinegar and honey liquid 3 spoons daily early morning from 3 months , I hope and pray to God that it would be better 🙏 God heal ur all deseas God blessed you
@@UsmanAli-si7rz Glad to hear you are OK!
I have done more research and seems like a lot of people are lacking potassium and magnesium, and both effect the heart and other muscles in the body. Might be worth trying to up your potassium and magnesium levels and see if it helps! Or atleast do a RUclips search and see if any of your symptoms are similiar.
Thank you for the reply and hope you start to get relief! 🙏
@@splash5974 thanks ur best wishes I hope u will get better soon , but how long u have this problem dear brother ? and your age ?
Thank u so much doctor. I have been suffering same problem for 6months. God bless u 🙏🙏
I'm only 17 and I'm already going through all this =_= the cardiologist tests and everything and I hate having panic attacks- especially at school. Thank you such an informational video.
I'm 41 I get them all the time. It sucks
+Markeeta Roane I get chest pain almost every day. it is like sometimes happens in left side sometimes in middle and sometimes in right side. and it comes for some 2-4 minutes and then go. I am not getting it what the hell is this.
I think it is due to anxiety or may be muscles spasm.
I am so tensed
Deepika Dixit anxiety causing muscle spasm.
+PATRAGO ya I too think so.. I went to chest specialist. he checked every possible thing at the end he said that it is happening due to stress or muscles pain.
and I am still having this on regular basis.
Good afternoon Doctor, thank you for your wonderful episodes. I have a question, I have ectopics and some of them are very painful and feel like my heart is cramping. I’m an paramedic for 25 plus years and the ectopics are really worrying me. I’ve had every test none to man and they came back normal, even my cardio gram was good. ? How can I cope with them. Thank you very much for what you do. Paul
Thank You! this was a very insightful video. Greatly appreciated!!
Appreciate your way. Very simple for ordinary people. Thank you. Countynew. God bless you.
