So, I am currently going through a rough patch again.
I had been working in a cardio ward. I started worrying about my heart. I don't usually pick up fears from work but it was a bad period at home which left me more vulnerable to it.
Since my anxiety has been high my reflux is back. This has happened enough to know that this is a pattern for me. I get reflex when I'm anxious.
I keep getting the odd pain in my left arm. Like the odd shooting pain. It happens throughout the day, but never lasts long. I might have the odd minute of on and off pain and sometimes won't get another pain for hours.
So now I'm slightly concerned that I don't have reflux but I've had a series of mini heart attacks.
More likely my anxiety is causing the arm pain due to me focusing on potential heart attack symptoms?

BTW this has happened twice in the past.
My anxiety gets bad, I get reflux and these arm pains.
I am trying to be rational and tell myself that maybe arm pain like this is a sign of reflux, the pain eases up when I have a good burp.
That and I'm still alive.
I think I'm mostly in control but I just need a little bit of reassurance if that is ok.
