I've been experiencing some really strange sensations around my heart. It feels heavy, like my heart is beating too hard or could stop at any moment. Sometimes I even feel like an electric shock goes through my body. I've had an echo and TMT test, and both came back normal. The doctors say my heart is perfect and healthy, but I can't shake the feeling that I might have a cardiac arrest or heart attack at any time. I'm 18 years old and honestly, it's kind of freaking me out. Can you give me some advice or insights on what might be going on?

Why do cardiac arrests happen in the bathroom?

Water temperature,most often incidences of stroke or heart attack in the bathroom happen more in winter than in summer. Chilled water can cause the arteries to shrink and prevent blood flow to vital organs like the heart and brain.

I've been having this mild, intermittent pain in the middle of my left palm, just at the bottom part. It was odd because it would last only about 30 seconds before disappearing, and then it would come back again after a few minutes. It didn't spread anywhere else and was just in that one spot. This happened last night, but by this morning, the pain was gone. I'm puzzled about what could've caused this. Could it be something related to a heart issue?

"Based on your description, the intermittent pain in your left palm does not seem to be directly related to a heart problem. This type of localized, mild, intermittent pain is more likely to be musculoskeletal in nature. It could be due to overuse of the hand, a minor injury, or even a nerve issue. To alleviate any discomfort, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation."
