Anxiety Or Angina
Posted: 10-28-05 17:08pm

My mother spent the night in the hospital last night with chest pain. This is not the first time something like this has happened.

They did an x-ray and took some blood and wanted to to a stress test this morning. She did the x-ray and the blood test but wouldn't let them do the stress test.

She told me that the blood test showed some "stress hormones" that lead the dr to think she just had an anxiety attack. Well when I was there the dr told me that her symptoms lead them to think that she may have angina. Besides that, she told me herself that she wasn't stressed or upset when the pain started.

I haven't been able to find much about anxiety and anything in your blood, I think she is lying to me as well as herself and is just afraid of getting more tests.

Can anyone tell me more about anxiety and how you are diagnosed with this, is there something in your blood that can show this?

Thanks,
