Why, if you have been taking these drugs for years without incident, do you assume the problem was caused by the drugs?
And why, if they found there was nothing wrong with your heart, do you assume you had a heart attack?
I went recently to the ER with chest pain and shortness of breath that had lasted for some time (and I was 61). They found nothing wrong. Maybe a panic attack? I don't know. They didn't know. It happens.
Sometimes it is stomach related, especially if it's short lived. I frequently get severe chest pain with pain in my jaw and shoulder. The first time it happened, I was trapped in heavy traffic (pre cell phones) and sure I was going to die of a heart attack. Then I burped loudly and the pain stopped. This happens to me regularly, every couple of weeks and I know now to gulp water until I burp. Apparently, air bubbles can get stuck in your esophagus.
