Excess gas can give you tight chest if you was burping a lot maybe just a build up of air …..disclaimer I’m not medically trained but got lots of experience with chest pains and I.b.s. 😃
Oh really I never knew that, I’m on lanzopazole 30mg but stop taking them last year I suffer really bad and I’ve still got it now when I take a tennis I feel better, and I keep going toilet sorry probably my ibs too
I used to take them switched to omeprazole for reflux…..gastro person told me your bowel is connected to your lower rib cage so a build up of gas tightening your muscles and can give you chest pain ….take a laxative have a good fart relieve the pressure if it happens again maybe……just a suggestion……could be good old stress/anxiety
Hello, I try and just get through it best I can on my own and go on my phone but I feel ok today just not hot and sick now and again but it’s my nerves that I had heart flutters before I’ve got myself that worked up over it
Awww thank you, I will try some meditation and I really need to do some exercise It leaves me with a headache right across my forehead and I feel all tense need to snap out off it, and stop being silly 😜 Thanks 🐬
If you suspect there is something serious then, by all means, get checked out by a doctor.
One of the truly cruel things about panic attacks is that they can feel an awful lot like a heart attack. It's truly amazing (and often annoying) how anxiety can influence the way you feel physically. If it ends up 'just' being anxiety though, it's important NOT to catastrophize.
That is exactly how my acid reflux was this weekend. I have lung disease so I went to urgent care for a chest xray. They thought I had a blood clot and had to go to the ER. It is a really bad acid reflux flare. Its pretty amazing how it mimics other things. Have you been eating regularly? Under a lot of stress?
Hi Hypo, the thing about anxiety is your fight or flight instinct is being kicked in and your being pumped full of adrenaline, when I feel that chest tightness I go for a long walk or some other form of exercise to burn off that extra energy. Are you familiar with an amino acid called L Theanine ? When we have an anxiety attack our brains are being stimulated by something called glutamate, L Theanine blocks this and calms the brain you can combine with cbd and Omega3 it works for me , you might want to research it .Also I use magnesium cream on those tight neck and head muscles to relax them . Have a good day! 😊
Hi Gordo sorry for late reply just been really hard for me this past week, I had a really bad paink or Andy attack not sure which one. Lasted for about an hour, felt like I was on a boat the feeling wouldn’t go I couldn’t even lye down when I closed my eyes I felt I was spinning and of course panic wouldn’t go, got myself in a right mess. Just wish it would all go away
Hi Hypo sorry for late reply had sign in issues. Sorry to hear your having a bad time , hope you feel better now . Yeah vertigo is the worst. Are you on any meds? The feeling I get most is feeling off balance, but it’s getting better. Have you seen neuropsychologist yet? Have a good one.
