  1. Yes, but so can a lot of other things, including gastrointestinal problems, lung problems/infections, heart problems, strained muscles (I've done that one, opening stuck windows), and a whole host of other things.   If a person gets the pains more than once or twice (or even then) they ought to get them checked out.

  3. Yes. But even though it feels like it, you can't 'give' yourself a heart attack through a panic attack, so don't worry.

  4. No one has ever died from a panic attack. Ever. It's all in your mind. I know it's hard to tell yourself that when it's happening, but rest assured, you're fine. Stress can take a toll on your life though, too much stress is bad for you.

  5. Yes i suffered with it when my mum got diagnosed with 6 months to live, its just the way of your body reacting to stress.

    It will get better in time, try to find something to do to take your mind of the situation that you are worrying about.

  6. anxiety and panic attacks can definitely cause chest pains...
