What Is The Treatment For Chest Pain And Breathing Problems?

Hi,I was in the er..had chest pains hard time breathing.. got an ekg it came back abnormal they gave me nitroglyceren oxygen they said I wasn't having a heart attack but something was worng...so I was admitted.. the next morning a nurse came in an gave me a shot of epenifren? Never had that in my life..then dr. Said I could go home.. I followd up a few days with my dr. Said all the problems I was having.. he didn't seem concernd said it was panic attack? Could a panic attack give you an abnormal ekg plus I have other health problems..and I take no meds.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No, panic attacks can not cause abnormal EKG.
In my opinion, you should definitely consult cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, repeat ekg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test) because there is high possibility of heart diseases in your case.
You may need cardiac supportive drugs on the basis of reports.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
