Bombareded by so many sypmtoms, all anxiety?

[lifeofbrian]

I know I may have some medical issues, everyone does, but anxiety wise, is it common to have all these in one week, or even one day?

Burning in center of chest
Stiff/tight feeling between shoulder blades
Sharp pains in left and right chest
Sore throat
Aches and pain in shoulder muscles (trapezius)
Dizziness - sometimes hard to focus my eyes
Short of breath
Shooting pains in head
Hot forehead, sometimes with headache
Almost constant numb left arm
Numb and cold hands and feet
Trouble swallowing
Palpitations
Rumbling in the ears
Shakes

One Doc says I have reflux, another says it's just health anxiety. I am on omeprazole for the reflux, I now have heartburn that I never had before.

a lot of your symptoms could be caused by anxiety.
sounds like you could have poor circulation, are you an active person. do you exercise ?

just to add the heartburn is very common with propranolol , if it's really bothering you
you could ask them to try you on omerprazole or something

I am very inactive, so that makes sense. Sorry about the mistype, I keep getting my Omeprazole confused with Propranalol. I was on Propranolol years ago, hated it. It's Omeprazole I'm taking now for reflux. I had to edit my mistake so people get the correct picture.

Can you describe your shortness of breath?

Edit: I always thought heartburn and reflux were the same thing (as in the reflux causes thr burn in the esophagus near the "heart").

might be worth some light exercise, even it's just a walk every day?
it would help with the numbness , maybe help with the anxiety too
