I threw up blood, but i have no pain, and my stool is fine, but my middle lower chest feels a bit tight and i have been burping quite a bit?

Mallory-Weiss tear?: A mallory-weiss esophageal tear may develop after vigorous retching. Brisk red bleeding however should not be ignored or dismissed. Old blood may look like coffee-grounds, and be dark-colored. Oozing, small volume bleeds may be diluted by other stomach contents and may look like streaks, clots, or pink-tinged material. Any of these descriptions deserve evaluation--bleeding is never "normal.".

I went to ER because of chest tightness. They did two EKGs, chest x-ray, blood tests, bp, heart rate, etc. All fine. Can severe anxiety cause that?
