Chest numbness/pressure

Hello!  I am 34, male,  and had anxiety disorder for many years. Recently i started to had these attacks and i dont know if they are related to a heart issue, some lack of minerals, psychology related or all of them.  It happened yesterday and today as well. First i was in the subway standing and i slowly start to feel a little pressure in my chest which slowly starts to become like a numbness and is expanding across my chest and belly.. I feel i have to breath faster but it still feels like not enough. It doesn`t feel like pain. It also happened when i was just sitting somewhere at Mc Donalds and eating.  The thing is that it happends when i stand still somewhere. The soon i started to walk,  i get better and then it dissapears. I even tried to run after and didn`t had any issues.  I do feel the urge to sigh for a couple of days though. I think during these attacks i have low blood pressure or low heart beat.

I want to add that i have been very stressed lately and also been through a diet and lost some weight.   Do you think that because i feel better when i walk is a sign that is not a serious heart issue? Maybe i need more minerals or i should just do a blood test... Thanks !

Best get checked out to make sure all is ok

It sounds like anxierty, I personally have a tight heavy chest(as if someone is sitting on it) a tight throat, it also makes my tummy go tight especially just under my rib cage and pain.

Doc says the tummy thing is acid reflux,

Personally when this is happening to me a good brisk walk helps me better than sitting around worrying about it.

Ive had all the checks done bloods,ecg,camera down my throat, CT scan,everything is fine,but until I came onto this forum I believed there was something seriously wrong with me but all the test and 2 trips to a and e says this is anxiety and the forum makes me realise Im not alone.

It comes in all shapes and sizes and has soo many symptoms just when you get rid of one another comes along.

Im on meds and waiting on CBT therapy,but everyone deals with it differently.

Stay Strong

Thank you ! I do hope is anxiety but i will do a check if i will keep experience this.

 Keep coming to the forum,it really does help
