Yesterday I had the scare of my life.

I was working when I felt a tightness in my chest and a strange feeling like a wave of warmness. A feeling like I was going to pass out and my hearth started beating really fast. The paramedics came and my hearth was at 130 and pressure at 155/84. I was brought to the hospital and they did EKG, blood test, blood clot and everything turned out fine. My pressure returned to normal and they let me go. I am so scared of what was happening. I taught I had a hearth attack.

Hi MariaSue,

A blood test will almost always reveal whether there is an acute or recent heart attack. There are relevant chemicals that get into the blood stream during the episode. An EKG would show if there are irregularities in rhythm. Your BP and HR is/was really not that bad. Anxiety may be the reason for your symptoms. Doesn't appear to be the heart based on what is read.

This sounds like what my mom had a few days ago and the doctor told her it was an anxiety attack.

What did your mom feel sparkle. I was so scared it felt like a wave of something coming through my body and a tightness in my chest. It was so scary.
