I've been having this pain in my left chest right next to my nipple, and at night, my heart feels like it's racing even if something small wakes me up. It's been happening all day, and I'm constantly aware of my heartbeat. Plus, there's this twisting kind of pain in a specific spot on my left arm. Could this be something serious with my heart, or is it possibly something else?

View allI experienced a sudden jerk in the left side of my chest while I was sleeping at night. My ECG came back normal. What should I do next?
It is possible that the sudden jerk in your left side chest could be due to muscle spasm or a benign condition. However, if you continue to experience this sensation or if it is associated with other symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) 5-10mg as needed for muscle spasm.

Hey, I've been feeling really worried lately. So, I'm a 29-year-old guy and back in December, I had this scary episode where my heart was racing like crazy and I had chest pain. I rushed to the hospital, they did an ECG, and said everything looked fine. I even saw another senior cardiologist who also checked me out and didn't find anything alarming. They gave me some meds like clonozopam and betacap tr 40, and things were okay for a while. But the past few weeks, I've been getting this weird fluttering or vibrating feeling in my heart, especially in the evenings. I don't have any chest pain or other symptoms now, but I'm really stressed about it. With the lockdown, I'm having trouble seeing a doctor again. Do you think this could just be anxiety, or is there something else going on? What should I do? I've attached the ECG from that time, if that helps.
That could be due to anxiety,if your previos medicines are avaialable with you you can take those medicines and visit psychiatrist for appropriate management

I'm really worried. My total cholesterol came back as 108 and there's a star next to itwhat does that mean? I've been having heart palpitations and got my ECG, 2D echo, and TMT done, and everything turned out normal. Can you help me figure out whats going on?
A total cholesterol level of 108 mgdL is considered low, and while low cholesterol is generally not a concern, it may sometimes indicate underlying conditions like liver issues or nutrient deficiencies, so its worth discussing with your doctor. Regarding your heart palpitations, its reassuring that your ECG, 2D echo, and TMT tests came back normal, suggesting no immediate heart problems. Palpitations can still be caused by factors like stress, anxiety, caffeine, or electrolyte imbalances, so its important to monitor any triggers or patterns. Ensure you're maintaining a balanced diet (especially electrolytes like potassium and magnesium), managing stress, and avoiding excessive caffeine or alcohol. Since your tests are normal, but palpitations persist, you may want to follow up with your doctor for further advice and possibly consider a Holter monitor to track the palpitations more closely.
