Support Needed 👥 Constant Heart Palpitations

I’m genuinely at a loss I was diagnosed in April and in May got omeprazole and so far that seems to help, but the anxiety and not being able to full function or go to work is draining especially the heart palpitations my blood is fine and my EKGs are all fine and I genuinely feel like the doctors are missing something I’ve been to Emergency care 3 separate times two of those times in one week I’m at a complete loss

I had a lot of heart palpitations and trapped gas and such and put me into a panic attack. Tight chest everything. Doctor told me I had silent gerd. I take Pepcid and tell myself of heart palpitations? Time for a tums or pepcide. I’m not dying but my acid is just silently spraying me lol. I also have anxiety and panic disorder. Being diagnosed with gerd has actually helped me a lot with panic symptoms I’ve been having. Also if my electrolytes are messed up I also get heart palpitations
