I just wondered if anyone else has had similar symptoms?
Also, I'm awaiting an appointment with my GP and I do know that Mumsnet isn't here to diagnose me!

The last 3 weeks I've struggled to eat. I just don't feel hungry. I've been eating because I love food and it's the highlight of my day but I don't want anything. A few mouthful and I feel full. I then can feel quite sick. My tummy is bloated and uncomfortable (but an ongoing issue).
Weirdly I kind of feel sicky/full in my chest area but also very bloated, tight and uncomfortable in my tummy. I don't have to eat to get bloated and no particular food is a trigger.

Very tired too but not unusal for me lately and also occasionally have a weird taste in my mouth and feel i can't quite taste food the same. I don't have Covid.

Any ideas? I've got from thinking I have ovarian cancer to another type of cancer. I'm not generally a health anxious person but I'm feeling worried.

Anyone else had similar?

Also to add...I'm 37 and definitely not pregnant.

How soon is your GP appointment?
It’s so easy to let Dr Google diagnose you with all manner of sinister illnesses, but best to try not to fret too much, else you’ll just be unnecessarily anxious.
Go to your appointment, explain everything thoroughly to your doctor and take it from there. I had something similar which turned out to be silent reflux. Some omeprezol and a slight change in diet soon sorted it ☺️

Tha k you for your reply, I'm sure anxiety will make me feel worse. My chest doesn't feel right either!
I'm not sure when my appointment will be, I did the online consult form on Friday, so will probably hear in the next day or 2 when my appointment is...or they will call by surprise and I'll miss the call (as last time).

When I had this, the feeling in my chest was as if my heart was ‘fluttering’. Not sure if it’s the same for you. Either way, don’t worry until you have reason to, and even then, in all likelihood everything will work out fine! ☺️

Did you ever find out the cause of this? X

@Daffodilfields1 how are you now? Have you ever found out what was causing it? Going through something similar now for 2 years!
