like many I am sure, I came to this website by Googling "slight pressure in chest", something I picked up a couple of weeks ago. uncomfortable, irritating, and sometimes difficult to bear, there were days where I wanted to give in to the fear and assume the worse. Like others have mentioned, your doctor will likely prescribe mediation, tests, and specialist to hunt down a problem that may or may not exist. And of course, I suffer from severe anxiety, even the often panic attack. Instead of a cure, though, I have decided that what ever happens to me, will happen to me. Even though my mind, body, and spirit scream for a solution, there is a point where your body will start changing due to surrounding/weather/time/life changes, and no medication will help cure what ails you. (Circle of life my friend...) If this is the case, let today be the day where I learn to live with problems I may have, and stop trying to resolve the problems I live with. I hope these words help you as they have helped me.

to me it most definitely sounds anxiety related. in fact i have it RIGHT NOW lol..  i've had panic attacks for a few years now, and generalized anxiety for just as long. people say to fight it but.. bot so true, you need to be aware of it and let it pass through you. the best thing you can do for your self is to HAVE FUN. the more fun you have and forget your problems- get out and force yourself out and about. drink a sh*t ton of water.

hi,yes i have the exact same symptoms,i have not yet been to see i doctor,but i wont get fobbed off with anxiety or stress lark,thats modern medicien all over,they say they have tested for desease or abnormalities,when in reality,they just want to keep people sick,and in constant pain and discomfort,then say theres nothing wrong with you,and try to place the blame onto the patient,by saying that the illness is in the mind.another way to fob people off,is to say they have indigestion,what they should be doing is listening to their patents,thats what they are paid for after all.my mother had an anurisum removed on 2000,which saved here life.this is a potentially life threatening condition,if not treated soon enough.keep on at the system,dont let them fob you off,making lots of money out of people on the way.we,ie human being,are not just something for others to make money out of,our lives have value,and we deseve to have a good quality of life,and health.

Look up Constochondritis. I had the same situation like yours, I just took a painkiller like advil and it helped. I did go to the doctor and they found no heart abnormalities.
