Yesterday I went to see my DR after my 2 week hospital stay.  I have only been seeing him for like 3 months now and he never knew me before this "panic and anxiety" hit me before.  Anyhow, I told him about my stay and what tests they have done and he said isn't that what you wanted?  I said yes and no, I wanted them to get to the bottom why I have been feeling this way...anyhow, after it all, while my partner was in there with me, said that he still thinks it's anxeity and that is the cause of my pain and now my fast heart rate (when I move, sit up, stand up or stuff like that).  He said it's all pyscosamatic and that I have increased symatic tone that is why my heart rate is esagerated when I move, but he said it's all the anxiety.  He won't even feel where the pain is and says it's all in my head, I am so upset and know my partner thinks the same thing after leaving with me.  I still have pains in my chest and feel really bad and know something is wrong with me, in addition to panic and such, so I am not sure what to do, I am suppose to have another test for my heart as they are not sure if there is something wrong with that but even if they find a sorta clogged artery, it doesn't account for my heart rate when I move around, I am so upset and fed up of this whole thing.  I have 3 appt's tomorrow (DR, Nerologist and Pycologist) so I will see what they say, but I want to go to another hosptail and get another thought on this whole thing!  Any comments?

It sounds like you have had a rough 2 weeks, and you are looking for a lot of answers right now.  Attend your appointments that you listed and then really listen to what everyone has to say after the results are in.  
Searching all of the physical stuff is a good thing to rule out any obvious problems.  If you feel that you are not getting all of the answers that you need you can look for a second opinion if that is what you want.  There are only a certain amount of tests and bloodwork that can be performed to assist in ruling out actual physical problems.

Good Luck Today
