I'm 25 and I've been feeling a gurgling sensation near my heart. It speeds up my heartbeat and makes me really restless. This has been happening a lot lately. Could my heart be getting interrupted or is this something else?

I'm really worried about this ongoing chest pain I've been having for the last eight months. Sometimes it's sharp and hits right in the center or other areas of my chest, and even my breast. I've also got this pain on the left side of my chest that spreads to my upper back on the same side. I had an ECG and a 2D echo done about five months ago, and everything looked normal then. But this pain really scares me, and I'm not sure what my next steps should be or which specialist I should see. My Spo2 levels are between 94 and 97, and my resting pulse is around 53 to 60 in the early mornings. Could you help point me in the right direction?

Patient is advised cardiac markers, spirometry ad complete blood count.
