anybody recognize these symptoms??

I am 30 years old, and for the last week have had a pressure or tightness in my chest, I have zero appetite and feel full all the time. I've had two trips to the emergency room this week. Panic related due to difficulty breathing. The doctor there says it's not my heart and it's not my lungs, they are working fine, they ordered a bunch of blood work and took a chest xray. I get those results back today. One nurse suggested it may be my thyroid? Im also a type 1 diabetic. I burp alot, and yawn excessively. I've cut out caffeine, and all other vices, . getting plenty of sleep, not too much excercise because with these symptoms I'm afraid to exert myself. I have had the most stressful three years of my life financially, but all that has started to turn around. Stress could be a factor. If it is all in my head thats fine, I just need to know for sure.

I'm in the same boat and don't know what to do.  Chest tightness, more in the sternum area...I burp excessively but it doesn't provide relief.  I'm 27 and in good shape/health, this all started about a week ago.  The pressure is constant and worsens when I lie down or sit for long periods.  I don't burp anything up or feel like I'm slightly vomiting, so I'm not sure about acid reflux...can anyone help? I've read over tons of comments from people with similar if not the exact same symptoms, but all are from years ago.  Does anyone recognize these?
