    I  have had them, its the adrenaline because you are anxious.  Do you get breathless as well?

    Dear kirsty,

    I am sure you are just suffering from anxiety, you might even find that at certain times you heart beats in an irregular manner. Don't worry about this it's just another symptom of anxiety disorder. I feel it in my decending colon, the pain can be anywhere because there is this thing called " refered pain " which means you get some pain or unpleasant sensation in an area away from where the real pain originates.

    Your heart beats in an unusual manner because you feel anxious about something but you feel pressure in the centre of your chest. I know this is correct because my GP explained it to me but I still find it very strange.

    Stressful situations affect us in all sorts of ways which make us feel more anxious.

    The only way to deal with it is to sit down and relax, take some deep breaths, and try to imagine a situation which makes you happy.

    We need to reprogram our minds to cope with stressful situations

    I hope this helps you in some way

    Best regards

    robert
