Hey guys, hope you all are well.
Last night I had the weirdest feeling. I was laying in bed and had finished eating about 1 and half hours before. I was watching tv when all of a sudden I had this weird feeling like my heart was struggling to beat. I had no pain nor was I out of breath. It was kind of like a pounding/racing pulse for about 15-20 seconds. Then I could feel the reflux buring in my throat and chest.
Anyways I woke up this morning and felt as if my entire left chest was tight and tense(kind of like muscle tension). I ignored it all and carried on with my day and returned home.
Now I googled reflux and anxiety and stumbled upon a perso who has hypothyroid issues (she thought she was having anxiety) and reflux.
She was having the same panic symptoms as me(except the tension in my left chest). I heard that untreated hypo can cause heart issues which we all know is my major issue.:weep: I'm 5'7 and I weig between 128-132. My weight fluctuates between this. No matter what I eat I dont really gain weight but my previosu doc just told me that I have a fast metabolism and that I'm very active which makes someone maintain normal weight.
Now I'm scared that I have thyroid issues and might not even know. I was given loads of blood work last year(And I mean loads, I was discharged and they were still taking blood from me), especially for thyroid and it came back normal.
I have to see my gp tomorrow but I'm not scheduled for bloodwork for another 2 weeks. This is the new gp I have and I can't exaclty go to her and pour out my feelings to her cuz i don't now her well yet. That's another issue I have causing me anxiety right now.
I'm just terrified I might have Hypo Thyroid and it will damage my heart or something. :weep:
