Sometimes for hours on end I feel like there is somone pressing there thumb I site my sternum saying let me out!! It's a dull awkward pressure. When it starts then my hands will start sweating like mad and I will feel like I can't take a deep breath. This has been happening for 9 months since I quit smoking! I also feel like I can constantly burp and yawn when I feel like this. Sometimes by breastbone feels tender. All in all I've had a chest x ray normal, ecg normal, 2 full blood counts both within normal range l, 48 hr holster monitor picked up only a hand full of ectopics and some sinus tachy. Doctor says it's anxiety! Generalised anxiety disorder?? How can you feel so bad every day? But then some days just a bit sweaty and no bad symptoms at all? They also said I have GERD
