hello went to primary care tonight cos of my chest pains in middle of chest and above belly button ,i coudlnt cope no longer , had a nice chat to the doc who examined my chest said he thinks its from acid, which baffled me i do get the pain in shoulder blades too though but as i ave health anxiety it takes ages for me to trust what the doctor says its terrible, any one experienced this ? iam 24 and pretty phyiscaly healthy apart frm mentally ! so they didnt think it was anythnk to worry about plus i had an ecg last year but even though i was still worried wen a friend of mine asked why they never gave me another ecg!!! i nearly cried but im sure its ok, as he told me to countine taking the omprezole i was given a while ago for acid refulx that caused me problems swallowin so i guess acid can cause alot of nasty problems ,and as were more snesitive with the anxiety it makes it worse. sorry to go on but im feeling a little better just waitin for the dreaded pain to disapear its nasty esp wen i bend over or lie down, thanks for listening love chanty xxx gota try and accpet this even though my mind says other things

Hi, acid reflux is really nasty because it can hurt a lot and can take some time to respond to treatment but it is nothing to worry about, it poses no danger at all :)

Get a good night's sleep, that will help :D
