I started to get tingling in my breasts 2 weeks before my period but went away a few days beforehand, then around Easter I started to get mild heartburn but I think it is acid reflux by my symptoms as it feels like something is stuck in my throat sometimes, this last few days now especially today I feel a tightness in my throat like it's hard to breath and my shoulders are so tense. Also a few days ago I was reading an article about breast pain and while I was reading it the pain came back again, why is this happening to me? How can I stop it? I just want to feel ok again...Starting to feel depressed

Thank you everyone for replying. Very helpful and comforting advice. Apologises I keep repeating myself I am worrying alot and feel I need reassurance. Before now I have never experienced this type of anxiety and I was unaware of what it can do to your body...scary!

Non-cyclical*breast pain*is where the*breast pain*isn't linked to the menstrual cycle. ... Stress and*anxiety can*also be linked to*breast pain. The*pain can*be in one or*both breasts*and*can*affect the whole*breast*or a specific area. It may be a burning, prickling or stabbing*pain, or a feeling of tightness.
Seems up my symptoms perfect,
Re: Please help? Can stress and anxiety cause this?
Just an update, this week I have decided to start to ignore the twinges and tingling in my breasts because it was starting to effect my work. I started to try to keep occupied and try and not obsess over it, It wasn't easy because I freak out anytime I feel a pain and my anxiety levels rise. I have noticed the pain subsiding and not as often as it was. Is this going to be an on going issue?

While no one can tell if it will be ongoing, it's apparent that it was tied to your anxiety over it as it lessened when you forced yourself to ignore it.

Yes seems to be so I just have to try and stop freaking out and stay calm to see when it will go away. Thanks you for your response :)
