Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Chest pain with normal ekg and history od anxiety and acid reflux is self explanatory. Both anxiety and acid reflux causes chest pain and both needs to be managed.
Anxiety needs supportive care with anxiolytics , slight psychotherapy sessions and reassurance.
Acid reflux needs symptoms care and diet lifestyle modifications. losing weight , eating small frequent meals, avoiding spicy fatty foods, processed meals, delaying lying down after meal and regular exercise will help acid reflux.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
