Hi Lola! Don't assume anything is anxiety related without first consulting with your doctor to rule out other causes.  Anxiety can wreak havoc with our digestive tract, but we always need to make sure it's not something else first.  I know we've spoken, but don't remember if you take anything for your anxiety. Stomach pains can stem from a lot of things, I would see a Gastroenterologist for an evaluation, and your peace of mind!
If everything is okay, then accept this and put it to rest in your mind.....okay?  Hope you feel better and take care.

I would think the indigestions pains are more probably related to the various illnesses you've been "dying" from and of course the anxiety is not helping matters. An upset stomach CAN be a symptom of anxiety, it's just not one of the more common complaints, but we are all different and it could be very normal for you. Do you not have anything to help with the anxiety?
A bit of a delicate question, but are you by chance constipated?
Extremely painful indegestion, worse than what you are used to, should be evaluated by your doctor. I can't tell you to ignore these pains in light of the fact that you've been rather sickly of late.
Can you call your doctors office and talk to his nurse, get her advice as to whether or not you should go in?
That would be my best suggestion.
Peace
