Random chest, arm, leg, shoulder, neck, head pain and heart palpitations.
For about 3 weeks now I've had random pains in my chest anywhere from the left side to the middle all the way to the right side. I also have a deep aching pain in my left arm close to my wrist, the pain is different everytime it hurts. It also goes tingly and I feel pressure sometimes in my arm. I am very tired all the time, and have been loosing weight. I also get light headed and dizzy and weak a lot. I also have been have random heart palpitations, I can't explain what they feel like because they are faint and really weird but I have them about 3-5 times a day. I have been eating healthy and I used to smoke but stopped once all this pain happened. I am pretty sure I have anxiety, I also have very bad panic attacks but the pain never happens when I have them. I am so worried all the time over it because I think I'm going to die from a heart attack or a stroke. I went to the ER and I had an EKG done and a chest x-Ray and both came back normal. The doctor decided to let me have an echocardiogram and wear a heart monitor for 3 days, both witch haven't happened yet, but will. I also got my blood work done and hasn't heard anything back from the doctors yet. I am so worried and only want to know what the hell is wrong with me. Can anyone help me ?! Please..
I have only been smoking for a year. I don't ever excersice but I'm scared to because I don't want to make my heart race and have a heart attack .. Thankyou for your reply
