Chest pain: viagra, cialis, levitra

Hi guys

I had terrible side effects from cialis and viagra: heart attack-like symptoms (chest pain + pain on the left side of neck and jaw + pain and numbness in my left arm). At the hospital, doctor did not find any signs of heart attack or myocardial infrarction (luckily). I explained the doctor that I had those side effects after taking cialis, and viagra in the previous month. In both cases I used moderate dosis (5mg cialis, 50mg viagra). Doctor could not tell why I had those side effects, although he acknowledged that they are listed on the patient information leaflet of both drugs (and also on the levitra’s one). My problem now is that I still have chest pain after three weeks (I was even thinking that I have developped gastroesophageal reflux disease, or chronic acid reflux, because I have been using anti pde5 drugs for 1 year and this could be the cause of my chest pain, but I do not feel any acid or heart-burn symptoms). Did anyone had a similar experience and can share some suggestions?
Thank you

I've noticed that if I take Cialis to soon after eating it will cause an irritated stomach, how close to a meal do you take yours? That said, some indigestion can produce chest pains because of unreleased gas, I have had that go along with it at times. I have a hiatal hernia and I'm pretty sure that's what causes the chest pain associated with the gas, it allows it to get higher in the chest. Just a thought, but doesn't explain the arm numbness or jaw pain.

Reflux cannot be excluded, but arm and jaw pain could be more related to heart condition. I have read on reddit the posta of several people experience the chest pain issue. I would like to know more from Franktalk’s members.
