1167342 tn?1265464484 Last year my 48 year old sister passed away and of course,I was under the worst stress of my life. I had chest pains and left arm pain. I went to the hospital. I had many tests because I have a family history of heart issues. I myself take Lisinopril HC and Zocor and both have worked well for me. I am a 48 year old female and I don't smoke. I work out and have lost 20 pounds but still have at least 10 to go to be in a good weight for me.
7251241 tn?1389564212 I get pins and needles in my left arm everyday, it started at the wrist and over 12 months it has spread up my arm. Ive had 2 X ECK, 2 x rays and bloods in ER and my doctor order some and everything is coming back normal. What could be causing this? I do have neck stiffness everyday and finding it increasingly hard to raise my shoulder. Doctors have said it isn't heart related as it would of happened by now.....
Avatar f tn this is accompanied by pressure in the chest and pain in my left arm. I have been treated for GER and SVT with an ablation. I have an ECHO, and stress tests, EKG's , and holter monitors. all are normal. The symptoms start with a tingling in my face, then I have a flushing feeling, followed by palpitations, pounding heartbeat, chest pressure and pain down my left arm. all labs and EKG's are normal.
Avatar m tn anyone ever have their left arm go numb or hurt a bit when stressed or having anxiety?
Avatar n tn The next day I woke up and lay in bed while an incredibly severe pain happened on the left side of my chest, near the center. My left arm was incredibly painful. The pain between my shoulder blades was severe, but not as bad.as my chest. I could barely move. I took pills for the pain but nothing helped. It lasted for what seemed like a long time. In my feeble state I called for transportation, got wheel chair assistance and flew home to Canada where health care is free.
Avatar m tn I feel like my left side of my head is burning, my left eye is tender to touch, left side of my neck hurts and stings, left arm and hands tingles. I also have a fever. My past few months have been stressful. Would the stress be causing this? Is there any way I could do something at home? I am tight on money but would like to care for my body.
Avatar n tn I had a brain MRI come back normal, but have not had a neck MRI. Has anyone else had arm symptoms like this and if so was it related to MS? My neurologist says because my symptoms only last a few days usually, and not weeks or months, that MS doesn’t do that? From someone with experience is that the case? He also says that because I can force my hand to open that it is not a contracture or spasticity (personally I think he is an idiot.).
Avatar n tn When I get anxious or mad or upset, my left arm and left leg ache and get really tight. Does this indicate a problem in my spine or mind? And, is there anything that I can do about it?
Avatar n tn I had atypical symptoms of Angina, ie arm and chest pain not associated with excersize. I had two stress tests, one nuclear. In both I went 13.5 min to attain the desired heart rate of 160, and scarcly broke a sweat. The nuclear test results. 'Abnormal left ventrical function by gated imaging. Evidence of mild LV dysfunction. Segmental wall motion abnormality of antrior and septal walls. Evidence of myocardial ischemia involving the anterior and inferior septal and apical walls'.
Avatar m tn Hello, I'm a 34 yo male. For the last 18 months or so I've had pain in my left bicep, tricep, my armpit, and occasionally in my left shoulder. At its worst, it gives me a sensation like a blood pressure cuff is squeezing on it. The pain will occasionally radiate into my pectoral muscle and sternum. My physician did an MRI on my spine that came out clear and has also ruled out any heart problems.
Avatar m tn s in a row without a normal beat until I jump up and make my heart rate go up to kick it outta rhythm, I guess I just cant get over these other symptoms happening all of a sudden, I;ve never had chest pain or arm aches until all of this started happening, maybe it's anxiety but i've delt with massive anxiety since I was 13 and I know what stress/anxiety chest pain feels like and this isn't it.
Avatar n tn thankyou for responding, yes had the test reached my target heart rate , but didnt feel like i had exerted myself enough to give my heart a real test, thankfully nothing showed, but wish i had some answers to the chest pain that goes down my left arm, and cardioligist says its nothing, well its not nothing its very disturbing actually put me on lipitor as bad cholestrol is 7 oh well if i cark it least i know nothing was wrong..
Avatar f tn the last few days I have noticed recurring numbness in the fingertips of my left hand, as though blood flow had been interrupted or something. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 8 years ago and have been undergoing some stress with moving - could this be related to the stress? Years ago I had pain in the left arm and some tingling sensation and was diagnosed with "classic symptoms of thoracic outlet syndrome," but with excercise, this subsided.
Avatar m tn Also i Get A warm sensation through the chest which causes me to gasp for breath for a second. and it comes with tingles in my lower left arm. these happen maybe once or twice every couple of days. sometimes i get a shooting pain in the left side of my head only once maybe twice a week. also get burning sensations lasting 2 seconds and sometimes pin ***** sensations Can Any One Help I am going crazy. I have Been Told I Have P.V.C's And i have beta blockers 30m per day for this.
Avatar m tn Its happening on and off all day long for 1 month now. Also have chest pain on the left side and my left arm get numb and tingling. All of this happen at rest. I had a lot of heart tests done (holter monitor, EKG, blood tests, echography of the heart, events monitor 2 weeks, stress test...) , my Cardio Doc cant find anything wrong with my heart. I had those tests more than a year ago before the left arm and hand pain start. So im a lot worried about a heart disease...
Avatar m tn Shortness in breath is observed while climbing stairs. Left arm pain along elbow joint is noted. Taking hypertension medicine, depression med, thyroid medicine. Few days DHEAS is low. What do you suggest in such condition to get consistent test. Cardiologist fixed repeat ECHO in end of March.Ankles swelling. Belly weight might be due to low DHEAS.
Avatar m tn why is my left arm falling a sleep from my elbow down and only when my arm is bent it's like hitting your funny bone ?
Avatar m tn My symptoms include constant pain in left shoulder blade like there is something stuck under the shoulderblade, numbness in left arm, cramping in left chest sometimes, pain in left armpit. it's scary It has caused me to get several tests ran including many EKGS, BP checks, stress tests, etc. All of these tests indicate that I have a healthy heart. I have had doctor after doctor after doctor tell me that it's not my heart causing this problem. What else can it be?
Avatar f tn I have uncontrolled hypertension and began having nagging ache in my left arm, and occasional pain in my upper back, and ocaasional discomfort in my chest...so I had a thallium stress test...during the period in the test when they sent me home for a couple of hours and told me to return later, I had severe pain in both arms, was nauseated, and slept until time to go back...i told them about it, but they were not concerned...when i got the reults of the test, it wa normal...
Avatar n tn This lasted for all of a minute and I was fine, but then I had numbness that started in the left side of my face and traveled downward to my left arm. From the numbness began a jerking motion in my neck, that would move my head to the side, left ear touching left shoulder. The movement was uncontrollable and constant. I also started to develop a curl to my left hand when I would walk. I was taken to the emergency room after it got to be extreme.
917202 tn?1243322728 Im 25, 112lbs, active/healthy. I have heart flutters many times through out the day and I asked my doctor about it and she said its related to anxiety, and not to worry. However, during the last few months I've been experiencing 'deep' cramping through out my left arm, usually starting in the shoulder/armpit and travelling down the rest of my arm. Some days its not as bad as others... If my heart flutters a lot in one day, then my left arm cramps up, this really worries me!.....
Avatar m tn ve been having left side chest pain that has been in the same exact location for about a year and half now, that radiates to left arm, mostly inner left arm, and left hand, and left jaw. Palpitations, pvc's, and rapid heartbeat that wakes me during night. sometimes when i have the severe left side chest pain, especially after night of drinking, i have sweats, and naseu.
Avatar m tn does anyone ever get some left arm pain with anxiety? when i get real stressed my arm will start bothering me. I have had a check up on my heart and everything is fine on that just curious if anyone else has had problems?
1303604 tn?1273028384 I have been having tightness on the left side of my cheast, and pain/heaviness in my left arm. It is very uncomfortable and makes me worried that I will/am having a mini heart attack. I also have had anxiety for a long time though, and for the past half of year have been through some really high extreme stress. I never had pain like this until I went through that stress, so I am thinking that it is just anxiety. Honestly, supplements will be your best bet to help you to feel better.
Avatar f tn 33 year old female, history of chest pain dates back almost 6 years. Also have pain in left jaw, neck, shoulder, arm, back and armpit areas. Have been diagnosed with sarcoidosis in the past year, confirmed by biopsy. Have moderately high blood pressure, which is controlled with medication. In the last year, I have had a treadmill stress test and a resting echocardiogram. Both indicated no problems. Over the past 6 years, I have had 3 EKG's also (the last one being about 2 years ago).
Avatar n tn Sometimes I find myself tensing up my left arm/shoulder and somehow think that this is playing a role. I also note that my left hand/arm feel particularly strained after working out with weights. For now, I will report any new or worsening of symptoms to my Dr. Take care.
