“Chest pain?”
Good Day,
My name is Arlina and I am a 24 year old female with O- blood type. I have a 6 year old son and I am a bit overweight. In June of last year i had a miscarriage at 5 months and had to perform a D&C.2 days after the D&C I started having chest pain both in the center and left side of the chest. I have also been having trouble breathing, tingling/pricking and numbness in my left arm and leg and having problem sleeping due to this. I have constant headache and my vision is blurry most of the time. I have gone to multiple doctor here in Belize and they all say they don't know why I am having these symptoms but it is now May 2020 and I'm still experiencing these symptoms. I really want to be healed as most times I'm scared I might be having a heart attack. I haven't been able to work since then due to these symptoms. here in Belize we don't really eat healthy diet and most time we can't afford too. Please help me as I do not know what to do or who else to turn to for help.

Hi,
You should get a stress test, Echocardiogram, to ensure you do not have structural heart disease. Most likely you have spasm due to stress. Spasm is a benign condition. It doesn’t need any heart operation, you don’t get organic heart disease at your age. My advice is, if you smoke, stop smoking. Keep a healthy lifestyle. Eat a Mediterranean diet (google it) and exercise regularly. Yoga and meditation can be helpful.
Good luck.
