weird drop feeling in chest

[tchild]

I have been having some weird feelings in my chest as of late. There is no pain, just this weird "drop" feeling, like my heart is getting ready to stop beating, I call it a scared heart, feels like when you get scared how it feels like it skips but I get this while doing nothing. I can be sitting watching TV and if I move just right it feels like my heart stops. I sometimes get this feeling that I am going to pass out and I have to catch my breath.
I have had numerous tests ran, the only thing they say I have is MR (mitral regurgitation) which they say is common, it commonly referred to as a heart murmur. They said that I have a "misfire" on my EKG reading but "nothing out of the ordinary" I have been in and out of ER's and in and out of hospitals, I do suffer from anxiety but I am not anxious and when I get these feelings my pulse is usually pretty low, between 65-70 so I know its not anxiety causing it.
I am a 42 yo woman, not as active as I would like to be because of this problem, used to be really active. It seems to be controlling my every move. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah I get this feeling aswell it's about 2yrs now it's like a sudden shock or flash in the chest area like the drop feeling u describe but I get a lot of wind afterwards aswell sometimes I start burping but that initial shock feeling scares me which seems to make it worse cause my adrenalin kicks in, its like when ur under some sort of threat or pressure the doc didn't recognise the symptoms when I've told him but I do suffer with anxiety and stress.

You probably had a Premature Ventricular Contraction or PVC:

These premature beats are normal.  Eveyone has them, but *NOT* everyone feels them.   The questions are these:  Can you do your ordinary activities without fainting or throwing up, in spite of your awareness of symptoms?  If you can, you are probably OK.

There is a strong relationship with anxiety.   Talk with your doctor.

Omg. I get the exact same feeling and the burping too. That makes me think its just gas...but it feels like so much more! I'm tired of being told it was a panic attack! The sensation caused me to panic!

I get the same feelings described on here....infact i just got out of the hospital yesterday after a whole bunch of tests and was told that it was not my heart, so i came home from the hospital after being there for two days and i still have the same feeling in my chest - the feeling comes and goes....i get a tightness in the middle of my chest and cant breathe and also at times i get pain in my neck going up to my jaw and left arm, as i am typing this i just got a dropping feeling in my chest which is so scary. I do not know what is causing this, as before they discharged me from the hospital yesterday i  was told it was not my heart - i have been to the hospital three times in the past three years with the same problem, and everytime i am in the hospital for a few days they do a bunch of tests and send me home saying it is not my heart, the symptoms eventually go away and then return after a few months. I do not know what to do as it is ruining my life, i am in constant fear that i am going to fall dead any minute and as a result i am in constant anxiety and stress. Thanks Anastasia

I'm 16 years old and have only recently started having this feeling for the past like 4 days. Iv'e recently noticed in the past 4 days that my heart would beat faster than normal and I'd get the exact same feeling you guys described a couple times a day but they don't compare to the feeling I just had 3 hours prior to writing this.

>>>>>>>>>>MY EXPERIENCE THAT HAPPENED 3 HOURS PRIOR TO WRITING THIS<<<<<<<<<

It's currently January 2016 6:37am whilst I'm writing this and I haven't had any sleep at all due to the feeling I just had. It started around 3am whilst I was watching a movie. My heart started beating faster than normal and I'd find myself taking deep breaths. I started getting the exact feeling you guys described. This felling was worse than the feeling I've had the past 4 days, same feeling just allot worse. It feels like my heart is going to stop beating. It's Similar to the feeling of guilt, butterflies and that feeling you get when you're about to fall asleep but imagine you're going to fall down some stairs and then immediately wake up but all combined together in your chest. I can confidently say it's the WORST feeling I have felt in my whole entire 16 years of life, it's awful I felt like I was going to die (I AM NOT EXAGGERATING IN THE SLIGHTEST BIT). It got to the point where I couldn't watch the movie anymore and ended up turning my TV and PS4 off. After that I went on my iPad and googled "weird feeling in chest", whilst I was reading your comments it noticeably got ALLOT worse so I turned off my iPad and decided to try and go to sleep but couldn't. I found myself trying to calm myself down by trying convince my conscious and body that everything was going to be okay and that I didn't need to panic because I proberally didn't have anxiety or something like that. After 3 hours of trying to sleep my body finally calmed down and the feeling went away. It's now 7:57am and I've been writing this since 6:37am trying to get every detail I can.

I saw some people in the comments saying that they have recently stopped smoking marijuana. I have also recently stopped smoking marijuana, not sure if it's a coincidence or something to do with the feeling we're having.
