I'm feeling kind of worried. I don't have any intense pain in my chest or heart, but it feels like something weird is going on with my heart. Whenever this happens, I end up drinking a lot of water until I fall asleep. What's also freaking me out is there's swelling under my left collarbone. This whole thing makes me feel weaker and more scared. What's going on?

Question

I'm experiencing some issues that are really concerning me. I have chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, and sometimes I feel really drowsy. I've tried sticking out my tongue, but I've had X-rays, echocardiograms, and TMT tests, and they all came back normal. The weirdest part is that these symptoms usually hit me at midnight when I'm sleeping. I'm worried because it keeps happening. Could you help me understand what might be going on?
