I have had a fear of flying all my life and have recently flown (and loved it). However prior to this I had been very anxious leading up to this and was experience chest pains. I've had this before and put it down to the stress and fear. Then I noticed the pain was occurring more when I exercised, even just a brisk walk and eased off within a few minutes of rest. I went straight to my GP who gave me and ECG (all OK) and some Xanax for the anxiety. Last week prior to my flight I really started to panic (more about the chest pain) and convinced I had Angina went back to see the GP - she got me to do a brisk walk and then when in pain gave me the ECG and took blood pressure. The ECG was fine but blood pressure was 195/110 which dropped back to 140/90 when back in her rooms and she told me the ECG was fine. I have been taking medication for hypertension for over 10 year but it has always been around 120/80 to 140/90 depending on how stressed I've been. I'm a very anxious person. I've been on my flight - loved it! But I'm still getting the chest pains when I exert myself and my GP said she'd give me a proper cardio-stress test to reassure me but she thought the pain was stress related. Sorry for the long post - Should I get the stress test? Or should I stop worrying - I cant find any references for my type of pain on the web - brought on by exertion other than Angina? Any thoughts? Hi
I’m a 45 year old male.
I have had a fear of flying all my life and have recently flown (and loved it).
However prior to this I had been very anxious leading up to this and was experience chest pains.
I’ve had this before and put it down to the stress and fear.
Then I noticed the pain was occurring more when I exercised, even just a brisk walk and eased off within a few minutes of rest.
I went straight to my GP who gave me and ECG (all OK) and some Xanax for the anxiety.
Last week prior to my flight I really started to panic (more about the chest pain) and convinced I had Angina went back to see the GP – she got me to do a brisk walk and then when in pain gave me the ECG and took blood pressure. The ECG was fine but blood pressure was 195/110 which dropped back to 140/90 when back in her rooms and she told me the ECG was fine. I have been taking medication for hypertension for over 10 year but it has always been around 120/80 to 140/90 depending on how stressed I’ve been. I’m a very anxious person.
I’ve been on my flight – loved it!
But I’m still getting the chest pains when I exert myself and my GP said she’d give me a proper cardio-stress test to reassure me but she thought the pain was stress related.
Sorry for the long post – Should I get the stress test? Or should I stop worrying – I cant find any references for my type of pain on the web – brought on by exertion other than Angina?
Any thoughts?

No matter what you try and think of your anxiety will NOT go away until you find inner peace within yourself. thats most of everyones problem. People just need to realize their problems..and if they can fix it than do so... if not, figure out a way to change it. I am 18 years old, 8 months pregnant with my first child, my family doesn't talk to me to often, and my husband is in the United States Marines and over seas right now... believe me I've been suffering from anxiety since I was 16. Horrible anxiety. But its things like just writeing this comment that can help anyone calm down and make their day alittle better:) Honestly..

But he needs to see a doctor to confirm that he doesn't have a heart issue. If the chest pain is related to anxiety alone then he will not die.

I am under extreme stress this past week. I was in a meeting at work, laughing and not even thinking about what has been going on. About 15 minutes later, I went to supervisors desk to ask a question and I started getting chest pains, shortness of breath, dizzy, sweats. I ended up being taken by ambulance to ER. My EKG and blood work, looking for specific enzymes were fine. He started poking where my chest pain was and was very sore. Does anyone know what that means??? The doctor then acted a little funny and was pushing me to get a stress test as soon as possible. He put me on Xanax to help with anxiety, but does not seem to relieve my chest pain either.

If your lifestyle is good (E.g you exercise and eat well and don't smoke) then chances are chest pains are not as serious as Angina and Heart attacks. Could also be from stress. I have exams coming up and lately I'v been experiencing chest pains. @Kisses1 Maybe it might be caused by just stomach acid which goes back up the oesophagus as you say you have Acid reflux.
