I've done a bunch of tests like the 2D echo, ECG, and TMT stress test, and everything came back normal. My cholesterol is at 158, BP is 12080, and both calcium and alkaline phosphatase are within limits. All the CBC, blood count, sugar, and urine tests went well, and the doctor said nothing's wrong with me. But I still feel chest pain and back pain, right opposite my heart and pain around my ribs. After dinner, I feel pretty uneasy, and my work hours are 5 pm to 3 am. When I try to sleep at night, I end up feeling stressed and uneasy. The 2D echo test showed my heart's compatibility is 64, and blood circulation is normal. I quit smoking about 8 months ago but still have tobacco twice a day, and I'm trying to quit. I'm also getting into exercise regularly. I'm wondering if this is all in my head because a colleague of ours passed away recently. Is there any chance I'm at risk for a heart attack here, and what precautions should I be taking?

View allI'm having these weird palpitations and transient jerks in my chest that last for a couple of seconds. They seem to happen randomly, and it's really unsettling because it feels like my heart stops during those moments. I exercise regularly and don't feel any chest pain, which is odd. My ECG, 2D ECHO, and HOLTER ECG came back normal, so now I'm left wondering. Could I have some kind of cardiac blockage? Are these jerks something I should worry about, like signs of a potential cardiac arrest or another serious heart issue? If it's none of those, what could possibly be causing these sensations?
Based on your normal ECG, 2D ECHO, and HOLTER ECG reports, it's unlikely that you have cardiac blockage or are at risk of cardiac arrest; the transient jerks and palpitations could be caused by benign conditions such as premature atrial contractions (PACs), premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), anxiety, stress, caffeine, or dehydration; to better understand the cause, consider consulting a cardiologist for further evaluation,
