I would get it front and center in my sternum, not deep or severe just uncomfortable. For me it was indigestion.

Did you take anything for your indigestion?

No it went away when my anxiety decreased. At that time I did try some prescription meds and I felt like they gave me weird symptoms so I usually would just watch my diet, prop myself up at night, and take Tums as needed. But honestly it all stemmed from anxiety. I even had an upper G.I. done to make sure there was nothing wrong because I felt like I couldn’t swallow my food and I had stomach pain all the time and there was nothing wrong with me physically.
