Walker, probably you have a variant angina which are manifest episodes of focal coronary artery spasm in the absence of atherosclerotic lesions (Prinzmedal's angina). I dont know about Effexors pharmacology but if its a noradrenergic drug it can cause artery spasm. How old are you? If you are older its possible you have stable/unstable angina. You did not mention if you had a similar pain before this happend with Effexor.
Tell us what happend in the meantime. I hope you're well.
-> linkadge I dont know what your age is but please take care inspite you take an atenolol because of Effexors chest pain properties. I dont like somebody here having plaque rupture and following thromobembolism caused by coronary artery spasm.
