    Anybody please

    Hey guys, just a quick question. I've been suffer from anxiety and panic disorder for the past 6 months. The other day I felt this weird sensation while I was watching tv and wanted to know if anyone has ever felt their heart do like a flip flop sound and then beat really fast or flutter. This sensation also made my back and the back of my neck feel really hot. It felt like a shooting hotness.

    I don't think it's anything to worry about, I have felt this a few times- and it's quite horrible, but with anxiety there are numerous things your body can feel. The more you dwell on it being something serious, the more sensitive that part of your body will feel to you, and you may then start to feel more things. So just don't worry about it, or if you are worrying about it- you could go to your doctor to ease your mind, but I wouldn't have thought it was anything serious.

    I have done a battery of tests, I was hospitalized for a week thinking that I was having a heart attack, they did multiple ekgs, echos, they even did a cardiac catherization, numerous amounts of blood work, X-rays, scans the whole 9, followed up with 2 different cardiologists, pulmanologist, endocrinologist, primary drs and none of them can't find anything wrong with me.

    It's just hard to chalk it up to anxiety because the sensations that one feels are so strong a real that sometimes it makes me wonder if the doctors did indeed miss something
