On Jan-10-2014 My brother passed away,he was only 43. We have beeb close all our lives. After eberything was said and done. I have come to find that I am havng chest pains, pain intween my sholder blaides, the pain goies up to my collor bone up up to my jaw the left side of my body, and mild or slite sharp pains under my breast. I do have anxiety and when I take a my medication the pain goes away but returns in about two hours. I do not know if I am leading up to a heart attact or is it the stress from the two years of that lead up to my brother passing away.

Hi i read your query very carefully.
You are experiencing chest pain after your brother has passed away which is a typical reaction to such a stressful event.
However i recommend to run the following exams to rule out cardiac problems:
- ECG
- ECHO
- Stress test
- Holter monitoring
If all the exams are normal than this is absolutely related to stress.
Hope it was of help!
