What causes anxiety feeling and chest pain?
human
Ive been having rumbling and almost like a pulse feeling below my sternum for 3 days now. Also had pressure on my chest last night whuch lead to an anxiety feeling. Ive looked up the symptoms and have seen identical symptoms but no answers. The rumble and pulse feeling is very consistant and I can feel it with my finger even. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Hello,You should get an ultrasound abdomen, plus an ECG. these two will help in ruling out any cardiac problem and if there is any  vessel or oragn involved in epigastrium region (below sternum). If these two are normal, this is most likely to be either anxiety or gastritis.Further managment would depend on the reports.Please get the above mentioned test as first and foremost we need to rule out cardiac problem. Anxiety can be helped with drugs like escitalopram or sertraline. Wish you good health.Dr. Manisha GopalMDd Neuropsychiatry
