View allI'm feeling a sharp, current-like pain whenever I'm doing household chores or lifting my child. It lasts for a few minutes. I've had an ECG and an echo done, and both came back normal. I'm really struggling to get things done around the house because of this pain. Any idea what it might be or what I can do about it?
Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient.

I've been feeling really anxious about my heart lately because I keep having these palpitations and negative thoughts that something might be wrong. I'm 23 and my GP said my echo, ECG, and blood tests came back normal, so they think it's just anxiety and overthinking. But I'm still really worried. Is it possible there could still be an underlying heart issue, or should I trust the tests?
Yes, for a 23-year-old male, a normal echo, ECG, and blood test are usually sufficient to rule out major heart problems. Since your GP has already reassured you that your palpitations are likely due to anxiety and overthinking, you can trust their assessment. To help with your anxiety symptoms, you can take **Xanax (Alprazolam)** 0.25mg as needed. It is important to practice stress-reducing activities such as exercise, meditation, and deep breathing techniques.
