Heart disease or just hypochondria?
I am 19 years old 200 pounds, decent shape, I suffer from severe panic disorder, but I'm scared that that's not all I suffer from. I have these sharp shooting pains in my left arm that go from the under side of the top to me finger tips, I have chest pains, my blood pressure has been up to 185/105. I've had countless ekgs, and a few chest x rays from several different doctors, and they say my heart is healthy as they can be and that it's just stress and anxiety... But I just can't help but to feel like something horrible is wrong... They put me on kpins for anxiety and that helped that but the symptoms of heart disease are still there... Then there's the whole tumor thing pressing on a nerve, I may also include my mom had a myocardial infarction at the age of 39 but everyone keeps saying I'm healthy as an ox...

If your heart is healthy then it's not heart disease. You would know and the doctors would know if you have heart disease. If you have a healthy heart then you are not having symptoms of heart disease exactly because there are lots of different reasons for those symptoms. I've got heart problems and don't even have any symptoms.

Stress and anxiety because of your age but if you are like this at 40, it will be because of your hesrt.
Lose weight, exercise every day, eat healthy so you'll live til 100.

Your arm pain sounds like it's coming from a pinched nerve. Not uncommon. You should get it x-ray.
