anxiety gas chest pain location - #19505

Simran

I am trying to figure out what’s going on with me. Lately, I've been feeling this strange anxiety gas chest pain location. It started a few weeks ago when I was super stressed about work. I thought it was just normal stress, but then I began to notice this weird, uncomfortable feeling in my chest that kind of feels like gas, but it’s also mixed with anxiety. Like, one moment I'm totally fine and the next I'm like, oh no, what is happening? The pain isn’t sharp or anything, but it kinda radiates throughout my chest and sometimes goes up to my neck, which freaks me out even more! I tried to take antacids thinking it was maybe indigestion, but it didn’t help much. I went to a doc and he said it’s likely just anxiety causing gas and the strange chest pain. Still, it’s really hard to believe that’s all it is! Can anxiety really cause gas chest pain location like this instead of something serious? Should I be worried about my heart or is this normal? Any advice or similar experiences would be appreciated because honestly I’m not sure what to do next!
