I've been noticing this fluttering feeling under my left breast and I'm not sure if it's my heart or something with my stomach. On top of that, I keep feeling hot and cold at the same time, and my feet are freezing, even with socks on. I struggle with bad anxiety and panic attacks, plus I'm bipolar, and I've been a hypochondriac since I was little. I'm constantly worried about having a heart attack. What could be going on?

View allI sometimes get this weird shock-like feeling in my throat, and it kind of feels like its coming from my heart. I've already done some heart tests like an ECG and 2D echo, and both results were normal. This sensation just hits me out of nowhere. Could you help me figure out what this might be?
This sensation you are experiencing could be due to a condition called esophageal spasms. Esophageal spasms are abnormal contractions of the muscles in the esophagus, which is the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach. These spasms can sometimes cause a sensation of a shock-like feeling in the throat. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a medication like Diltiazem (brand name Cardizem) under the guidance of your doctor. The usual dosage for esophageal spasms is around 30-60 mg three to four times a day. Additionally, avoiding triggers such as hot or cold foods, caffeine, and alcohol may also help reduce the frequency of these spasms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm trying to figure out what's causing my shortness of breath. If my HRCT scan looks normal, but I'm still experiencing breathing issues and my ECG shows RBBB, what could be going on? Should I consider getting a CT coronary scan to investigate further? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

I'm experiencing this pain in my left arm and shoulder that started this afternoon. It seems to come and go, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could this be something serious, or is there anything I can do to relieve it?
