You already know what is wrong, you are having an anxiety attack. You are going to be fine... breathe and remind yourself its only anxiety. you are OK. I get all that stuff too and you have to fight past it. the more you freak yourself out the longer the attack will last.

It sounds like anxiety which is probably making your stomach upset so you're getting all these symptoms but it just sounds like anxiety. Chest discomfort is a big anxiety symptom. Anxiety can make you physically sick. Just relax and breathe. Breathing will help get rid of your anxiety.

Anxiety can trigger Acid Reflux. You should talk to your doc about this.

Weakness or a heavy feeling in arms and legs are a typical symptom of anxiety.

Rolly.. Sounds like acid. You are panicking and the more you panic the worse the symptoms get... and so the worse the panic .. and the cycle does on (as you know!!).
I suggest taking an antacid to help settle your stomach and neutralise the acids. You will feel a lot better.
Hope you're ok

I get this. Weak arms and legs, stomach upset. It is nerves and anxiety. I get a lot of belching and feel like I have a lump and pressure in my throat around the vocal cord area. i started zoloft and hoping it helps all this. Hang in there. Try to relax.
