On way to airport and sweating and nauseus

[katyfitz]

So I'm waiting at the platform for my train to take me to the airport. I've had acid reflux (or a burning sensation in throat when I burp! Since yesterday and I keep thinking I'll end up in hospital in Scotland. I had a bit of a bad sleep also. At around half 12 I woke with my heart pounding and leapt out of my bed because I thought the ceiling was coming down on top of me and I was shielding myself. I got back in to bed and eventually calmed down but it was scary. I need to carry on with this journey and enjoy my time but I keep worrying about the acid that's happening. Is it the start of my stomach symptoms being something more sinister?

Sorry to go on and on but I feel alone and like no one understands

Hello!

So I'm super new here but I wanted to reach out.

Stomach issues are pretty much my #1 struggle in anxiety. While I have other symptoms, they are usually triggered by my stomach.

What I can tell you is stress plays a big role in digestion. I personally have stress induced gastritis, it's nothing too big to worry about, just uncomfortable is all!

Thanks for your reply. I'm scared I'll have to have all these tests and something bad will be found. Surely tho I wouldn't be able to eat and wouldn't be able to function if I was seriously ill?

All I'm going to say is I really hope you have a good time! Tell your anxiety to piss off and experience the joys and wonders of going on vacation!

Exactly, if there was something horrible it would be way more obvious. Enjoy your trip!
