I've done all the tests like TMT and 2D ECHO, and everything seems normal, but I'm still having this chest pain. What could be causing this?

View allI've noticed that my resting pulse rate usually hovers around 90, although it can dip slightly below that sometimes. Is this normal for me? Also, I've observed that my pulse rate spikes to around 120 after I eat and take a light walk, like after lunch. Is this something I should be concerned about? Just a month ago, I went for a health check-up, and both the ECG and 2D echo turned out normal. I'd love to get your thoughts on this.
A resting pulse rate of around 90 beats per minute can be considered within the normal range, although it is on the higher side. It is normal for the pulse rate to increase after eating or during physical activity. A pulse rate of around 120 beats per minute while walking after lunch is also within normal limits, especially if you were engaging in mild physical activity. Since your ECG and 2D echo results were normal one month back, it is reassuring that there are no underlying heart conditions causing these pulse rate variations. However, if you continue to have concerns about your pulse rate, it would be advisable to monitor it regularly and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and advice on managing your pulse rate.

I'm really concerned about this chest pain I've been experiencing since September 2016. It's deep on the right side of my chest, and it's not sharp, but more like a burning sensation. It feels like there's this big hollow hole and sometimes it feels like something's writhing or like a contracting muscle in there. It's at its worst when I'm sitting up. The only time I feel a bit relieved is when I'm leaned back at least 45 degrees or lying down. Ive noticed it gets worse on days I dont get enough sleep, but it doesnt seem to be affected by food or anything else. I don't have trouble breathing, exercising, or sleeping, but this feeling is constantly there throughout the day. Sometimes it's so intense I have to pause everything and lie down. What could this be, and what should I do about it?
anxiety or stress issue

Im 18 and experiencing palpitations out of nowhere, like my heart races hard even when Im just chilling. Its weird because Im not anxious, and all my tests like ECG and chest x-ray are showing normal results with normal sinus rhythm. My cardiac shadow came out normal too. So what could be causing these palpitations when Im just at rest?
It's good that your ECG and chest x-ray results are normal. Palpitations can sometimes occur without any underlying heart condition. In your case, since there is no apparent cause for the palpitations, you may consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help reduce the palpitations and the sensation of your heart beating fast. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also help alleviate the symptoms.
