Hi,
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that acid reflux may mimic all this clinical situation. Anxiety could also trigger your symptoms. Anyway, considering the fact that your symptoms were not improved by Omeprazole, I would recommend performing a cardiac ultrasound, thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid gland dysfunction. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
