Need Help Please

Could you please give me some advice if you ever dealt with what I am dealing now. A year ago I had chest pain, tightness, left hand numbness, upper back pain, dizzy head, confusion, pressured head, stomach pain, acid reflux, and etc. I did an endoscopy and the result came mild gastritis and the doctor told me it is causing all the symptoms, and he put me on nexium for 3 months. That put my mind in peace for almost 6 months. All the symptoms are gone. But a little over two months ago one morning I woke up from an awkward posture with sever pain in my neck. The pain went away after 24 hours, but a mild burning sensation and numbness stayed on the left side of my neck. I have also been getting some new symptoms like heavy legs, on and off shoulder pain, sometime breathing-shortness, and sweating at night. I have been freaking out about all these new symptoms. There are days that I wake up with worse thoughts about my health and believing these symptoms are going to kill me, and then there are days that I wake up just normal with no symptoms and asking myself why I had all those stupid thoughts. Usually the symptoms are worse when I am sleep deprived or hungry, and it gets better when I eat and workout. I don't smoke, and I don't drink alcohol. I totally quit coffee which helped me with getting my sleep back. Although I am not getting the chest pain and tightness as often as I used to, but I am more stressed than ever about these new symptoms (partly probably because too much googling). I visited my doctor a week ago. He told me it could be a pinched nerve. I am seeing my doctor again in two days and I asked him in the email to give me every test possible to make sure nothing is wrong with my health. Sorry for making this too long. Please share your thoughts and experience. Thanks

If you are getting the pains in the neck you might have strained some muscles.

Go to Google and look up the scm muscles in your neck, if you have strained them it can cause all sorts of problems. Read about them and if you think they are the problem then you can go onto YouTube and find out ways to stretch them.

I hope this will help you.

Thank you I will look up this. It is more burn and warm feeling than pain.

Burn and warm can be symptoms of muscle strain.

Good luck!
