About a year ago I was diagnosed with panic attacks. January of this year, I had weird chest pains and went to the ER. My local hospital is rated top 5% in the nation in Cardiology, and is leading the country in Interventional Cardiology. I had multiple EKGs, vascular ultrasound from top to bottom, 30- hour halter monitor, blood tests, echocardiogram, and Thallium stress test. I've also had a couple of follow up EKGs since, the last one being about a month ago. Also, I take medicine for GERD and the aforementioned panic attacks. I had a squeezing feeling in my chest tonight for a few 10's of seconds. My question is... 1: with all those tests, wouldn't SOMETHING have shown up?Something that (barring injury or trauma) would have indicated I had blockages forming, or clots or heart disease? 2: My Dr. says that GERD/acid reflux could cause very strange pains in my chest. Has anyone else felt this? 3: How long would it take for heart disease, blockages, etc to form?
Thanks.
