Suddenly he began to feel a dull, constant pressure in his chest that travelled down his left arm. He took a few deep breaths, but the pressure seemed to get worse and began to feel like it was suffocating him. He pulled off the freeway and drove to the closest emergency room. As a previously healthy 55-year-old man he infrequently saw a primary care provider and did not take any medications. The emergency department (ED) physician said that it seemed like a panic attack, but that he should be admitted overnight to get some tests in order to “just make sure that this isn't your heart.” Although that statement made him even more nervous, Mr Martin's chest pain resolved shortly after arriving at the hospital.
