constant pressure help!!

[Embrace123]

constant chest pressure, pressure in middle of chest then goes to left breast also a weird burning sensation that only last a few mins around the left breast then travels to stomach  idk GERD? ive been dealing with this for a week now.  it comes and goes could it be anxiety/stress?

[Mozxanax]

It could be GERD. Have you had this sensation in the past? Have ever had tests done when  you experienced it, or is this new to you?

[Embrace123]

true..  but ive had this all day and i havnt eaten anything i only drink water all day and its here. i wonder if it anxiety/stress..

[Mozxanax]

Can I ask you why you're not eating? Nutrition is important with GERD. If eating is hard for you at times, drink a quality nutrition shake. But presently you're having these symptoms so can I ask if you have experienced this any other time aside from the last week, and have you ever been tested to rule out any problems?

well ive had 3 ekg and 1 chest xray and blood work done from my primary dr and she said i'm fine.. i go see her Thursday  do you think it could be anxiety? because i believe at times i do have health anxiety..

[Embrace123]

oh and the reason why i didn't eat today was because i had lab work to do and my dr told me not to eat until i have the test done.. its strange because when i went to my chiropractor today i felt relaxed and i didn't feel the pressure as much but soon as i'm getting home its coming back..

[Mozxanax]

I think if you have experienced this in the past and had tests that ruled things out it could be anxiety. I've been to doctor with symptoms with my chest, stomach,.....you name it. Anxiety can produce a lot of physical symptoms. Health anxiety is awful I know.

[Embrace123]

have you had the chest pressure?

[Mozxanax]

Yes, I've made trips to the er with chest pressure and also feeling like I couldn't take a deep breath.

[Embrace123]

what did they say it was?

[Mozxanax]

It was anxiety. You said you've had this before not just this past week? And you got checked out? I just want to make sure that's the case.

[Embrace123]

no ive been having this all week since last sunday i had a bad hangover then two days later my aunt died so idk if thats the reason or what... i  havnt been to the dr about this but i do go to see her thursday..

[Mozxanax]

Embrace, it could very well be anxiety, but please tell your doctor all your concerns. You'll get peace of mind letting your doctor rule things out.

I get the same feeling with my chest, am wondering if it's all in my head. But why does this have to happen where does it come from?
