I've been struggling with a number of things over the last few weeks and I am beginning to wonder which one is causing my symptoms or it is just my anxiety.
I had acid reflux about 4 weeks ago (thought I was having a heart attack). Had ecg and everything was fine and prescribed with lanzaprazole which generally seems to be doing the job.
The following week i felt like my ribs were being squeezed so i went to see the doctor who advised me everything was ok.
In the last couple of weeks, i have had a cold which has pretty much gone but left a nasty tickly cough which seems to have tightened up my chest in the centre especially towards the end of day.
Just at the stage where i don't know what is causing or if my anxiety is responsible for a lot of these symptoms. Always had a fear of having a heart attack and all of these things just seem to make these worse. Are these symptoms very similar to anxiety ones?
