hi people i had anxiety/panic disorder before i ever got gerd.there goes my chicken and the egg theory,but i got gerd one day when i ate something really hot,ever since i been on meds for it,and still get heartburn if i eat something wrong..i was convinced i had cancer and actually ruined over a year of my life with these thougths really i did..it was a cycle,a cycle i couldnt break eithier...i think my mind something to worry on it got worse you know?well the scope came back good in december,than i worry about my heart?ok im not crazy people just hear me out its a cycle i guess,i have messed up my gerd severalk times eating trigger food whatever that means lol..i just wondered if anyone else here had gerd?if so once your anxiety got better did it?my anxiety has been peaking for the last three years..take care,remeber anxiety people are strong,we fight and win daily,keep fighting im trying too..
