Thud in my chest?

I was just sat on the sofa and all of a sudden felt a big thud in my chest and then felt the need to burp in my throat... Felt like my heart skipped a beat? Can reflux cause this?

Don't worry its completely normal. I been able to control my anxiety lately but even though I have I still had heart palpitations, i read somewhere that even normal people can have it. It was really scary though and it was the worst one I had for sure.

I've never had that before and my anxiety is all about my heart so mad rit rocker back up. I'm having the typical chest and arm pains flow, convincing myself off I got to bed I won't wake up 🙄 Tired of this. I'm worrying that the palpitation was a warning sign or a heart attack or something more serious.

I use to have really bad chest pain from anxiety as well and it use to mimick heart attack symptoms, Type in heart palpitations on google and see if it is accurate with how you feel. Even though I'm 100% it's fine. When I had the heart palpitation I almost got tricked into the cycle of being anxious so I started feeling chest pain and other anxiety symptoms but then I realised I was being tricked and snapped out of it, the more you worry the worse it gets. I know it's hard for me to say stop worrying but believe me it's very common.

Yeah I get you. The fear of it happening is wirse than it actually happening

I couldn't breathe very well after either and my hands were sweaty but it wasn't caused by the heart palpitations It was from me being scared, but remember even healthy people get heart palpitations completely normal

Palpitation son! Lol these never really scared me but I went through a period where I had them for a few months. One time I got them after deadlifts and I felt like I couldn't catch a breath and my heart just felt like it was flipping. All benign, have your doctor check it out though.

Palpitations suck! They scare the shit out of me. I hateeeee them. It seems like the more you think about them the more you get and it blows.
