Hi, about an hour ago i swallowed my anti-depressant pill i normally take everyday. About 45 minutes ago i started having extremely bad chest pains. The pain is so bad. I tried drinking water in case the pill is stuck in my throat but thast didn t work.
Hello, Strong chest pain that starts suddenly can be due to heart disease, and you will need to see urgently your doctor to rule this out. Your doctor will listen to your heart and lungs and will order an ECG, heart ultrasound and blood tests such as Troponin. If the doctor highly suspects a heart attack he may give you treatment before receiving the results of these tests. I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
