    Tight chest

    So a few days ago my chest started to feel tight and I had a slight cough, I immediately got tested for Covid 19 and it’s come back negative!

    In the morning I feel fine when I wake up and I have periods throughout the day where I feel ok, but then I’ll have moments where I feel anxious and my chest will hurt and I’ll feel short of breath and my throat feels like it’s closing up!

    Is this classic anxiety?

    Could also be reflux. Acid reflux can feel exactly like that, and produce a cough.
