thanks for your replies guys:)havent had any gerd test yet....well i do feel that theres some kind of acid build up or i burp a lot when i feel real anxious or stressed. the pain remains.....i dont feel it at times but sometimes yes it bothers me. i really hate the fact that im the type of person who worries a lot. im a worrier!!!! its just good to know that i am not alone. when i feel an attack coming i think of the many people panincenter has as a member...:) this eases my mind but still the fact is i am not cured with this mental illness of mine! gosh! :confuse:

Hi rst, yes I have exactly that problem! It's not really painful but definetely feels like a muscle spasm or something. It's worse when I lie down which is why I'm writing this at 1:45am because I can't lie down and go to sleep like this! I also have been to my cardiologist and so far, it seems like everything is normal. This is really bothering me mostly tonight. Let me know if you still have this and what you've done for it. Sarah

Hi rst, Do you experience belching prior or after these episodes? If so, it could be anxiety induced acid reflux and the bile coming up. Taking an antacid or some carafate could help offset this. Have you ever had an upper GI done, to see if you have GERD? Trish

hello people....just want to know....have you guys felt this pain on your upper chest(left side) feels like a twitching muscle. i,ve been to my cardiologist, done a lot of tests and everything was normal. he said that it could be stress or anxiety. as i am typing this message right now i can feel the pain though i feel that i am not stressed or anxious. i pretty much get scared knowing that i am a hypochondriac, i think that this is a heart problem that might lead to stroke or heart attack. all in all i am just scared but ive been to the doctors many times everything is fine.help anyone with this pain too???? what could this be????
