hi,
Thank you for consulting with Health Care Magic , I understand your concern .
Phentermine is a drug which can side effects like chest pain, increased pounding heart beat and troubled breathing. So i assume what you are going through is because of the drug . Sudden stoppage of the drug can also cause rebound symptoms sometimes.
If the chest pain is getting worse day by day its better to consult your physician and also consider getting an ECG, ECHO , and a chest X-ray to rule out other causes.
Hope this helps.
Write back to me for further assistance.
Wish you good health.
