<s>[INST] forst let me say im a 16 year old guy thats in shape/healthy and i have anxiety issues.  From 10-11 i had a series of panic attacks, at around 10:45 my chest started hurting once i got up from bed to go to the bathroom.  I figured it was just more anxiety, then i realized i had only gotten 7 hours of sleep last night and 5.5 the night before.  I went online and eventually read symptoms of a heart attack. I woke up my parents and told them about all this.  They pointed out that i had taken excedrin at 6:30 and i had been complaining of heartburn.  I took pepcid and i calmed down and its gotten better.  But did anxiety cause this or am i looking at warning signs of a heart attack??? [/INST] There are many causes of chest pain. Anything from musculoskeletal, ribs, lungs, esophageal, and everything in between can cause chest pain.  At your age it is very unlikely that your chest pain is related to your heart. It is more likely related to musculoskeletal pain such as a sore muscle.  Heart pain also does not last for more than a couple of minutes. If the pain persist, I would recommend seeing your doctor to get an x-ray as well as some blood work. You can take some anti-inflammatory pain medication in the meantime to help with your symptoms. </s>
