It is really hard for me to explain this...

Sometimes, my body goes into super-strange mode. For one, I can never burp, so gas inside me slips out in a quieter way, but it makes a weird bubbley noise. When this starts to happen, my chest feels heavy and tight. In the center, it feels rock hard. My mouth fills up with spit, and it keeps coming. If I don't spit it out it just builds up in my mouth. Also, I feel really sick in my stomach.

On top of one of these 'episodes' I get strong hiccups that hurt extremely bad and sometimes make me feel like I can't breathe.

I get like this most commonly at night, and it's finished when I wake up in the morning.

Anyone know what this is? Time to take a GP visit? =3

Some of those symptoms sound a lot like some I have during anxiety attacks. I don't know about the hiccups though.

I have bad health anxiety/hypcondria but I'm sure this is something beyond that.

My chest feels painful! >_<

Do you think you maybe have an issue with your stomach? Maybe acid reflux? It sounds like you're having pains in your stomach more than your chest, but I can't know for sure because I can't feel what you feel. Have you talked to a doctor about how it feels and what happens during the process?

I've had all the same symptoms for years now. I'm not sure that it warrants a GP visit though. I've just always lived with it. But If it does start to bother you a lot then you might think about going to see a doctor.

Not yet, but I will do soon. I've never heard of acid refulx, so I'll look that up.

Well, it's gotten worse and when I'm in this 'mode' it can get so painful that I have to take a couple tablets and lay down. Surely if you have something wrong with you then you want to know what it is right? =3

Sounds like acid reflux to me. My brother has it, and he has almost the same symptoms as the ones you described.

Time to visit your doc, doc.

Sounds like acid reflux, I was close to having acid reflux and was recommended I change my diet.
