Does Excessive Consumption Of Oxazepam Cause Tightness In The Chest?

Hi. I am a recovering alcoholic and i guess a habitual user of prescription medications, i tend to abuse my oxazepam because it eleviates the horrible anxiety that leads to my drinking. i have recently started using meth and have noticed shoulder/arm and tightness in the chest with a rapid heart beat, i am a 21 yo male, been drinking heavily for 5 years. is this cause for concern? or simply my paranoia/anxiety coupled with the already increased meth heartrate?

Hello,
Welcome to healthcaremagic.com And thanks for sharing your concern with us.
Meth and oxazepam should not be used concurrently because of the possible interaction . Increased heart rate , cardiac arrhythmia , heart attacks ,seizure are associated with use of meth . I would suggest you to take your prescribed medicine as per the instruction by your Healthcare providers And don't use meth because of possible health side effects and consult this matter further with your Healthcare providers.
