I hve started a new symptom that is driving me crazy, Started with a tickle in my chest witch in turn makes me cough. Sometimes I feel a pressure in my chest, All my vitals are good, oxygen level is good. Has anyone else ever experienced this , could this also be an axiety symptom ?

    Hi, I'm no expert but I would say this could absolutely be down to anxiety and that thing us GAD sufferers do and fixate on things so much that we can almost make them become real! Take comfort in the fact that all your vitals are good and that you've been checked out. Anxiety is know for triggering tight chests and I always struggle breathing during a panic attack or just before one too

    Hi Chantal

    I havent had that myself.. loads of other symptoms though lol.

    But i have read a lot of posts on here that have exactly same as you. And the more you distract your self the betté it will be.

    At least you know your not alone .

    Not that it helps the cough and tickle but it is a symptom of anxiety.. Try not to dwell on it and it may soon subside xxx
