Headache With Chest Discomfort caused by Stress? Posted: 11-12-07 22:54pm
I suffer from a chiari malformation had 2
decompressions I've been able to manage
headaches with tylenol, warm packs etc.
for the last 2 years but the last 3 days
going on 4 now I've been having a
persistent headache with discomfort in my
chest having palpatations and tightness.
Could this be from stress because Im going
thru a nasty custody battle with my x
husband..

Are these symptoms accompanied with flu
like symptoms (coughing, fever)?
Is this chest discomfort felt as chest
pain?
Do you find it to radiates to your jaw,
left arm, or between your shoulder blades
in your back?
Have you experienced any sweating, nausea,
dizziness,or shortness of breath?

I've been having pain in my back it feels
like its going straight down my spine. My
neck is pretty stiff with some crackling
noises. I find that I have to catch my
breath.

Do you have trouble sleeping?
Are you having problems with an upset
stomach?
Do you find yourself unable to
concentrate?
Are you experiencing irritability and
constant fatigue?
Do you have feelings of depression?

I would seek medical advice when you get a
chance. Almost sounds like severe anxiety
attacks. These symtoms are not unusual
with it. But, as I say, I would see a
physcian to get a conclusive answer.
Let us know how you fair out OK. And yes,
this could be from what you are going
through. My heart goes out to you. This is
not an easy time for you and your might
need a little more help then you realize.
