Maybe you ate some spicy food or an acid type food because that can cause that feeling in your throat and chest on top if you have Anxiety it will make you feel as if it's something else. Try drinking a glass of milk it will help. Tell yourself your fine and try to relax . Googling answers to things are not always that accurate. PLUS if the symptoms are just beginning I don't think it could be a serious cancer issue. You would probably feel other symptoms worse then the ones you explained above. Try not to think about it it will go away .
I'm only 17 and I hate thinking I'm dying I'm scared that it might be something bad I been burping for two weeks I'm make a doctors appointment its really bothering I don't eat spicy foods

Try to do something that takes your mind off.
OR
Just visit a doctor ASAP. Because unless you don't have that confirmation, it'll become hard to convince yourself.
But when you do have that confirmation, you'll see how stupid you were to overthink and make your life a living hell by yourself.
Hope that helps
PEACE
You made me laugh because I've been there done that lol,
It's probably Acid Reflux, or built up gas, You'll be fine . ! Trust me, if it feels serious see a doctor,
But DO NOT Google your symptoms, that should be an anxiety community rule #1
Google lies, and ill instantly give you the most terminal diagnosis for something simple,
Drink a lot of water, try and just lay down and relax , you'll feel better in no time,

I have tho all the Tim and I googled it and thought I had cancer got myself in a right state.... If you drink water or some milk it will ease off abit I had to have a scan andit showed that I had gall stones, if you keep away from the spicy foods and fatty food it should help 😊 x
I had the same problem I went to the dr's and I was diagnosed with Gerd (acid reflux- heart burn,stomach pain) I was prescribed omeprozole in a prescription which can also be bought at any pharmacy or store it's Prilosec I take 20 mgs extended release capsules one in the am 30 minutes before I eat and 1 in the pm 30 minutes before I eat also. Talk to your Dr and just ask for a prescription even know you can buy it but taking it 2times a day everyday it adds up trust me. I felt the same way you did and sometimes still do but this medication has helped a real lot just be honest with your dr. I'm a bad anxiety and panic suffer and I deal with so much everyday
I was also effected from Agent Orange from my Father so my Anxiety,panic are different from a lot of people and will get worse it has effected my health my life.
The way I see it is my anxiety has anxiety
I have fears and don't want to leave the house I suffer from sever migraines bad back problems and so on. The only thing I have going for me is my funny sense of humor and wanting to help people. So if you ever need to talk I may be new to this site cuz I just found it but I'm here to talk or if your feeling a attack coming on its always good to talk to someone to distract you I don't know if my email comes up but if not let me know if that is something that will help you or anyone on this site. Good luck and please talk to your doctor Tracey
Hi Mdiana.
I have wheezing in my throat, down by my collarbone when I wake up. Yrs. ago I took omeprazole for heartburn. It did help me. I weaned myself off of it, as I read bad things about it. A good pointer for you, is after you eat chew gum. It helps a lot. I am starting to take the omeprazole again to see if it helps wheezing. Make sure you take vitamin B-12. Your body can't make it without stomach acid. Let me know how you make out. A lot of the acid problem is with anxiety, our stomachs are making more acid! Just what we need !
