I've been having this really awful chest pain for about a month now, and it sometimes feels like my heartbeat is a bit off. After doing a bunch of research, I think it might be esophageal spasms. I went to the ER twice, and they said my EKG and heart monitor were fine. My doctor gave me muscle relaxers, which help with the spasms, but I still cant shake this terrible feeling in my chest. My blood pressure seems okay, it's usually around 120 over 86. I keep feeling my pulse all down my chest and arms, and its been really hard to get any sleep. Could there be something else going on that Im missing?

View allGot some concerns that've been bothering me. I had palpitations on Feb 1st when I was at work and the doctor checked out my reports like ECG, 2DEcho, TMT, and said it's not a heart problem. But since yesterday, I've had a fever and my right ankle's swollen and painful. I went out on my bike today, and just after starting, felt like I had some breathing trouble. Should I be looking into any more tests? I read somewhere that swollen ankles and fever might cause heart issues. What do you think?
renal function tests, pulmonary function tests are advised...

I'm really worried because I've been having chest pain for a few weeks now. Sometimes it spreads to my left arm and upper back, which is really scary. I've noticed that my heart's been beating really fast a couple of times this month, and when that happens, I start sweating and feel hot all over. I actually thought I might be having a heart attack. I went ahead and had an ECG done, and it says sinus tachycardia and nonspecific t abnormalities in the inferior leads. Should I be concerned about this? Also, I've taken medication for depression beforecould that be connected somehow?
sinus tachycardia in ecg , u need to take treatment for that which includes betablockers ,calcium channel blockers,cardiac opinion is advised

What could be causing my palpitations if it's not heart-related? All my tests, like the ECG, 2D echo, CBC, thyroid, and vitamin D3, came back normal. I still get palpitations randomly and also feel really tired with body aches. What might be going on?
Palpitations can be caused by various factors other than heart problems, even if your ECG, 2D echo, CBC, thyroid, and vitamin D3 levels are normal. Some possible causes of palpitations in your case could be: - Anxiety or stress - Caffeine or stimulant intake - Anemia - Dehydration - Electrolyte imbalances - Medications (such as decongestants or asthma inhalers) - Hormonal changes (such as during menstruation or menopause) To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, managing stress through relaxation techniques, and ensuring a balanced diet. If symptoms persist, you may consider discussing with your doctor about medications like beta-blockers to help control palpitations.
