I can't find the info anywhere, so do you know what it stands for? Your post made me remember something from our clinical -- we were learning the different types of Insulin - NPH, Regular, Lantus, etc. Whenever we drew them up, the instructor asked what type it was - long acting, rapid, etc.
Other causes. Chest pain can also be caused by: 1  Panic attack. 2  If you have periods of intense fear accompanied by chest pain, rapid heartbeat, rapid breathing, profuse sweating, shortness of breath, nausea, dizziness and a fear of dying, you may be experiencing a panic attack. 3  Shingles.
Amongst the cardiac causes of chest pain are: ischemia (due to blockages - including both stable and unstable angina and acute heart attack and coronary artery spasm), I have coronary artery spasms, this is only found with a heart cath. test called ergotivine challenge test. My heart dr. did this test on me in the heart lab three times and all three times my heart went into spasms. now i take nitrates, carry nitro and take channel blockers.
