If you are having heart pain, contact your doctor.

I have chest pressure that makes me feel like I'm having heart issues. After lots of testing on lungs and heart, we can't find the cause.

My LLMD started me on Biaxin due to my positive band 41, and my lung issues from the past.

I ran out two months ago, and this past month, the pressure has come back. I'm going in today to get a refill.

But, heart issues aren't something you let go. Better safe than sorry.

Just be aware that Biaxin can CAUSE heart symptoms too. I can no longer take it because it makes my heart do "flip flops."

Let us know what your dr says!!!

Are you on antibiotics now for Lyme?

Seems some people have heart complications from lyme , several people here with arrythmias.

I had episodic heart pains for long time - I never ever thought I had any problems (since young people dont have heart problems! -thats what I thought). Generally its benign enough not to causes serious problems.

I had terrible heart pain in the past that went away with ABX.

I allso went in to fibrolation ,and my chest was moving arround and I allmost passed out.

I thought I was going to die alone,my life passed before my eyes.

Then it stoped fibrolating.

It was scarry!!
