Cardiac Neurosis
SYMPTOMS. Signs may include anxiety, cold feet and hands, vague chest pain,
palpitations, headache, fatigue, flushing, and shortness of breath.
CAUSES. It is also called "soldier heart" and "functional heart trouble".
There is no actual physical disease involved with cardiac neurosis but it
may be triggered by the stress of daily life or battle. It sometimes occurs
in response to the death of a close friend or family member.
TREATMENT. Consult your doctor. Do not dismiss it lightly.
.Heart trouble must be ruled out by thorough examination.
