I haven't been on here for a while and I was feeling pretty good. I have been eating a healthy diet and running and I was keeping my anxiety in check.
I don't know what has happened over the weekend but I have had a major slump. I think it started when I was called into work on my day off because someone else was ill and this upset my route. Plus I had a stressful incident which my boss let me to deal with when it was her fault it happened in the first place.
I had planned a day out with a friend which meant travelling by bus by myself and I got a bit stressed again, and even more stressed going home I felt very sick and stuffed myself with unhealthy food when I got home. Sunday I planned a day to recover and of course my plans didn't work out, MIL asked us out for dinner. We had pizza which afterwards I felt sick again.
I have been feeling tension in my chest and starting worrying about it being my heart. ( I have had this before and had it checked and they never find anything wrong). It got so bad it became a constant pain and although my heart wasn't racing I felt it was and I felt myself getting more and more uptight. I took some Kalms and don't know if it was them or the rubbish food I had been eating I took really bad heartburn and nothing would help it.
I have had 2 really bad nights waking up with burning and chest pain, I have had GERD in the past and know the feeling. Now I have the worst ever trapped wind in my chest which is making my shoulders ache.
I am living on Gaviscon and drinking hot water with baking soda to try and keep the heartburn at bay. It doesn't seem to matter what I eat or drink it just makes me feel terrible.
I haven't felt well enough to run because I still worry the chest pain has something to do with my heart, even though the pain doesn't get worse when I exercise and my breathing is fine.
My mum has had the same problem for years and she was always convinced she was having a heart attack. She is nearly 80 and fighting fit. I just hate feeling so ill, when I try so hard to keep myself fit and healthy.
