    Hi Tracy, it is common to feel that you have something wrong with your heart when you have a anxiety disorder.

    Hi

    Yes I have this as well. Upper bacl ache and tension which radiates down my arm. Mostly left but sometimes the right arm. It just makes my anxiety worse and its a vicious circle. x

      I had these symptoms. I try to not think about it and think positive just keep your mind busy and try not to think about it (sounds easy I know ) but it has worked for me just keep telling yourself it's nothing serious and you will be OK. Hope this helps x
