Hi,I am Dr. Carol Rogala (Emergency Medicine). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Here s what happened: I was driving when a car came out of nowhere and almost hit me really bad. I got really scared and felt a little bit of chest pain (in the center) that lasted a few minutes. Could this have been a heart attack? (And yes, if I see it s necessary I ll go to the doc, but before I spend 2,000 dollars on what could be nothing I d like to hear some opinions from other people :-)
Nah more like flight or fight...
It was probably just from the stress, and anxiety of thinking you might have been hit. Unless the pain is still there I would just try to relax.
