Two nights ago l do not know when but l vaguely remember Having a sharp pain that was pulsing randomly but frequently 1-4 seconds while l was sleeping or slightly awake. It kind of pulsed but not with my heart rate. It sometimes it would be like (pain scale 1-10) a 4 and then lower to a 2 then back to a 4 then to no pain for a couple seconds then back to a 4 or a 2... ect. l do not know how long it lasted because l was half asleep Its fine today and this also happens sometimes when im awake. l have alot of anxiety and stress but can that cause it in the middle of the night?

l had an 2 ekgs within the last 8 months most recent maybe 1 and 1/2 to 2 months ago for heart palpations. l also had a couple chest x-rays. The results came back fine but l had Tachycardia sinus(fast heart rate) but that was only b/c l was extremely nervous They said it was anxiety and they slowly went away.

Last night it was fine.
Im very worried because l read unstable angina means a heart attack is coming soon. Im scared to go to sleep l just wanna stay awake.
l know you will say go to a doctor but my parents think its just anxietyand are getting sick of paying for it because l have been to almost 14 doctors or walk in clinics in the past 18 months all for different reasons.

l used to smoke allot of marijuana like almost everyday for about 1 1/2 years but the past 4-7 months l have cut down to only about 1 or 2 hits every 5 days and its out of a vaporizer so there is no carcinogens.
ps im 19 but l used to eat very unhealthy but now l eat healthier l weigh 190 l am 5 foot 11 1/2.

l am under alot of stress. My roommated passed away over the summer and a couple night ago my dog ran away.(we just got her back today :-D)
P.S My dad is 52 and he eats very unhealthy he drinks alot and smokes about a pack of cigs a day and rarely exercies and he had a full body mri about 2 years ago and everthing was perfect. (l dono if they checked his heart)
NOONE in my immediate or relatives have ever had heart problems.

Thank you for taking your time to read this l really appreciate it.

You need a hobby.

Here is the news. You have NEITHER angina nor unstable angina.

Stop obsessing over ur health. You r healthy! (Other than ur anxiety disorder) Rejoice! Get out & live ur life. While substances like MJ relax u immediately, withdrawal from them tend to leave u more anxious. The same with alcohol. And do not even think about Coke or Meth.

Make an appointment with a primary care provider. Plan on discussing a plan (that u will stick with) to get ur anxiety (and probably insomnia) under better control. Maybe with counseling or medications or with a combination of both. Perhaps try meditation, too. Next, get out & engage in some physically active thing u enjoy. If u r not out of breath & sweating, u did not do it long enough or vigorously enough.

Finally stop surfing the net looking for diagnoses & stop going to all of those doctors. Its a waste of everyone is time. Medical professionals can not quickly dismiss u & MUST take u seriously, thus feeding into u sense that this is real. It is not.

l felt the same thing only not at night, but l went to my doctor & they told me l had acid reflex?
i got an EKG & x rays but they said l was fine.
but l get so stressed out & scared that l am going to have a heart attack.
i think u get so nervous that ur chest begins to hurt.
maybe try to keep ur mind off it & hopefully u will feel better because it does not sound like u haven angina.

oh & l would not smoke if ur scared cause that could make it a million times worse.
