Is this a heart problem or panic attacks? I have had panic attacks in the past and I have had chest xrays, ekg, echo,nuclear stress test and was told I was fine. I had these tests 2 years ago. I have latley been getting a strange feeling in my chest in the center, not like pain or heaviness but like a cool breeze is blowing against my chest. I am constantly in fear of having a heart attck. I am 42 , female aliitle overweight like 20 lbs and smoke about 10 cigarettes a day and I do drink alcohol most nights 5-8 drinks , usually beer. Please help. I don't want to go to the ER again and be told it's panic. I don't have health insurance either.
