Could it be that you were slightly nervous about giving blood and felt a bit woozy afterward then that created anxiety? Please don't think I'm saying it is all in your head. I'm just throwing this out there because you said you were conscious of changes in your body. I know when I've had anxiety it can manifest itself as chest pressure and feeling short of breath.
No matter what it is I hope you feel better really soon!

Keep us up to date.
your symptoms could be from anemia. perhaps you normally have higher than usual levels of hemoglobin and the transfusion dropped you too much, making you symptomatic.
I would venture to guess it was the oxygen that helped your chest pain/pressure go away.If I can't go fast, at least I look good.
