Chest

[anon99]

I’m having chest discomfort. it makes me so nervous. I always rub the center of my chest when I get this feeling and i burp a lot. The difficult part is when I start to feel like I can’t breathe.. then my mind goes crazy.

Ive been having chest discomfort and needing to burp alot apparently ive got acid reflux but the meds they gave me didn't help. These 2 symptoms are what has set of my health anxiety again its been 8 weeks of hell for me 😫 anyways my point is u are not alone with these symptoms x

😖 sometimes it burns in my chest. Do you get that with acid reflux?

Yp and my stomach has started burning since ive stopped the meds the hospital gave me.

I went to a+e 8 weeks ago as i had chest discomfort for 4 days solid thought i was having a heart attack right inbetween the brest bone sternum area i was also getting heartburn and needing to burp alot like loads anyway they done ecg bloods ect said heart was fine said I have acid reflux the meds they gave worked for 2 weeks then stoped working doc gave different ones but they haven't worked ive now got to stop them for 2 weeks so i can do a stool sample to check for h pylori but my health anxiety wont quit im thinking i have some scary illness or something .

😳 it sounds exactly like what I’m going through. my fear is blood clots so I always think it’s a pulmonary embolism when my chest feels like this. or anytime my legs ache. which seems to be a lot lately. ugh

My fear is i have stomach cancer i stupidly google and that was one of the things i saw among 20 other not so serious things that cause my symptoms but me being me only focused on the negative x

Most of the time you shouldn’t google your symptoms because you always end up reading the worst outcome. And 99% of the time it’s not related to you.

I know this i realy do but its so hard when ur looking for reassurance im trying my hardest to not do it anymore 🙏

[DVISION in reply to Amandasullivan12]

I understand. I know reassurance is important when it comes to anxiety.

Hi anon, yes it is possible to get burning in your chest due to acid reflux.

That's why some call it "heartburn" Goodnight dear...Hope you sleep well xx
