Hello, I am new here so please bear with me 
I am 27 years old and have had panic attacks for about 10 years now (they were under control, but have come back really strong the past 6 months).
Anyway, last week, i woke up in the middle of the night with some horrible stomach pains. I went to the ER, they did blood tests and a CT scan of my stomach area and found nothing. My stomach hurt for 3 straight days, untill the pain finally went away.
But last night i started feeling the pain again, went into a full blown panic attack, and the pain got much worse. Finally, i was able to calm down, to where my pain became not too bad and was able to get some sleep.
So I guess my question is has any here experienced that? Can anxiety really cause that bad of stomach pain for 3 days?
I alway catastrophize (sp?) so I tend to think about the worst possible scenarios....
