Vickers, I forget to tell you I asked m husband if he ever gets those quick sharp one second pains in his arm and he said yes along with the tightness in the chest. Also last night when my son was crying and in such pain I forgot totally about myself and concentrated on him, which is a good thing, if I could just stop thinking about it maybe it would go away! I keep remembering you saying the heart is the strongest muscle in the body and when I was walking to the ill-fated Doctors appt I did NOT have pain, can all this really be caused by my imagination and anxeity? My mind must be a powerful thing. My son is feeling better. Hope to hear from you soon. GOd bless you, Debbie.

You sounded worried about me, do you think its heart related? my nurse said no but I am not convinced. I tried to see a Doc Friday, I think I may have told you they would not see me after saying they would! The same thing happened to my son today, we have to go back in the morning, thank God my husband at least got in, I know I am dwelling on it too much and making the symptoms worse, it all started with that darn night attack when my heart started racing and skipping beats ever since then I have been so fixated on my heart, its like a very quick sharp shooting pain in my left arm, I have had these throughout the years just never 3 times in one day, I am not numb, it now kind of aches, I wish I could just STOP thinking about it. The good news is my son can walk again and the pain and swelling has gone down and I am very happy about that. You had told me you had had numbness and arm pain, when I am sleeping I am fine. Looking forward to hearing from you thanks for your help and prayers. Debbie.
