I'm 30 and lately, I've been experiencing this weird sinking feeling in my chest, almost like a jump-sinking sensation. It just pops up randomly, any time of the day, and can last for a while. It's got me feeling uneasy, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can anyone help me figure this out?

Hey, a couple of years ago I had a CT coronary angio, but I had a panic attack because of the contrast media, and my heart rate shot up to 120. The staff didn't wait for it to settle and went ahead with the scan. They said my arteries were disease-free and mentioned something about a right circulation and a small caliber artery. How did they even get accurate images with my heart rate that high? Did they just fool me? Also, they originally told me I'd need another CT angio in 10 years. Do you think I need to do a repeat scan now? I'm just really confused about what I should do next.
It is possible to obtain accurate images during a CT coronary angiography even if your heart rate increases due to a panic attack triggered by the contrast media. The imaging technology is designed to capture clear images even with some movement. However, if you have concerns about the accuracy of the results or if you are due for a repeat CT angio according to your previous medical plan, it would be advisable to consult with your healthcare provider. They can review your previous scan, assess your current health status, and determine if a repeat CT angio is necessary at this time.
