    Hey there,

    I get weird feelings in my chest too, and a lot of other things, but it is very normal for anxiety to settle in places around your body too; you'll feel pain or dizziness or the like here and there, and it is normal.

    I would recommend talking to your doctor about it though, just to relax your mind and get some sort of closure about it.

    sounds like anxiety to me as i get the same symptoms, but i would advise going for an ECG and a blood test to be on the safe side and to rule out anything serious

    Thanks guys I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels like this. Iv went to the doctors had an ECG and blood test a was fine but there is a little doubt at the back of my mind. I just have to learn to live with this and get through to my head that it can't kill me
