Hiya. Yes i have. First of all it could be acid building up and heartburn, pain goes down your arm as well. When you get trapped wind it pretty much affects areas you wouldnt assciate with it. But personally just get checked out by a doc or nurse just to be on the safe side. Hope ur ok and take care

Thankyou for your response, I was thinking it was my heart! Iv been proper panicking. Thankyou will definitely get it checked. Take care too x

Yes i have. Went down my arm as well. Found out i had a silent heart attack previously and then a very loud one! Was told i was tacacardic ( sorry im no medic so i dont know if i spelt it right )

weird and fast heartbeat. A nurse did infact tell the consultant at the time about her concerns about my weight and heart rythm. The nurse got into trouble cos she voiced her opinion and said to him i needed help, that was ignored, she was unlawfully sacked and i had a second heart attack . Obviously im still here ( otherwise ud be some sort of medium and talking to the dead! ). Just please get it checked out. Arythmia can come on just by stress but with an eating disorder on top of that means just get checked out. Please dont just ignore it. It could be something or nothing, but just getting it checked out will put your mind at rest. When you feel your heart beat 50 to the dozen you will panic even more making it worse and you will worry more. All the best x
