Is it normal to get very sharp and lingering chest pains because of anxiety? I often (multiple times a week) get these sharp (sometimes dull) chest pains that last over an hour. They also happen when I don't really 'feel' anxious, but mostly when I am feeling quite stressed out. The pain is often in different places in my chest and sometimes (like now) go all the way to my upper back.

Is this something I should get checked out by a doctor or is it a normal anxiety response?
