I woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare and had sharp pain in my stomach and around my chest. I didn’t think anything of it, and spent the rest of the night laying on my back. When I awoke hours later, the pain was still very crampy and spots on my chest were cramping on-and-off (it was up towards the top of the chest and in between my left side and left shoulder). I got up, started getting ready and the pain was gone. The pain on my stomach is right below the center of my sternum. After a mere seconds (no more than a minute), the chest cramps disappeared and I felt fine. I still am having on-and-off stomach pain in that same spot since, but nothing as bad as it was in the middle of the night. I was recently treated with having anxiety attacks and was prescribed with hydroxyzine (10mg) and take levothyroxine (88mcg) for my hypothyroidism. I missed my morning dose of hydroxyzine the day before. Any ideas on if this is just a case of anxiety or could it be heart-related?
I am a 24-year-old male. I am not obese and work as a server, so I’m constantly on my feet. I had an EKG and chest x-ray done about two months ago…came back fine. My doc prescribed me the hydroxyzine and told me to slowly take myself off it, which I’ve been trying to do.
