I've been checking my heart rate with my phone, and it usually reads between 90-100. I don't smoke, drink, or experience any stress, but sometimes my heart feels a bit heavy, even when I'm just resting. Is this normal? I'm 5.9 tall and weigh 75 kg.

Question

I'm having this pain or pressure in my chest, and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast. The pain goes from the middle of my chest up to my upper throat. What could be going on?

I'm feeling a bit worried because all my tests like ECG, echocardiography, TMT, and CT coronary angiogram came back normal, but I'm still having symptoms every day. Could it be microvascular angina or maybe spasms in my arteries, or is it something else entirely?
