The past 2 weeks I have had a tightness in my chest, and then the numbness came and yes its the left side of my body. (I have been working out thinking its muscle pain but its only on one side and i just kept brushing it off) I have been to my gp and the couple of tests she's done and everything came back ok. I did however did a xray and the girl questioned if I am numb on my left arm which I replied yes. Annoying part is I have to wait a couple of days. This has had me overthinking and googling things. I still have this numbness, neck is stiff, I am tired, but have always been because I have low iron as well. But I am just wondering what has happened to someone with the symptoms. I have kids and a husband who is self employed and just don't want to stress him out anymore. I think I just need to vent and say something because I feel alone and hate this waiting game.

Most likely a pinched nerve in the neck!
It's going to be fine mumma. I have 2 buldging discs in my back that traps the nerve. I would say this is what you have. Some physio will probably help
This use to happen to me when I would have an anxiety or panic attack. It’s a horrible feeling and always felt like I was having a heart attack or what I imagine a heart attack feels like. Don’t google it always makes it worse. Just wait for the results, it could be nothing at all.
