    Thank you both for your reply ,i hate the feeling so much its making me so anxious as i keep thinking the worst thing it could be.It dosent help that a blood test for helicobacter came back positive but the doc said most people have this and it prob not the reason for stomach issues ,he said it more than likely anxiety .thank you again kind regards molly

    Yep, a ball beneath my ribs, sometimes I feel like it''s hard to breathe because there's smething there, it feels like wind but it never budges, sometimes it fades and then when I get bad panics, or feel ill it comes back major bad, i get it accompanying the tight band feeling around my head. x

    I get bouts of this too and like you say it feels like a ball there. It feels like I need to disperse a lot of air but I cant. I sometimes get a feeling like palpitations with it too. Think its anxiety and that in turn causes tummy problems. Angiex
