problem

i am 20 years old. never had any problem with my heart before. it all came to pass 3 weeks  ago when i was swimming and my heart  suddenly  pounced  hard  in my chest  3 times. i got alarmed and it was swaying very fast almost throbbing out of my chest. when i went back  home  i start  feeling  badly  and could not breathe, dizzy and took me to the hospital. the doctors did EKG, bloodtest, x ray and found nothing wrongs with my body... when i got back  home  my heart  was yet beating hard and i had slight fever.  then after  one week  i think  i got a panic attack and they took  me to the hospital again and did EKG and all and the doctors said my heart was normal. since  then  i been feeling  like  my heart  have  been hurrying  and beating hard almost like i can feel  it in my chest  and  and i got convictions that they might missed something when they were performing EKG... i am worried now all the time  during  the day about my heart  and when it beats  hard  i get signaled and think  it is a problem with it. . i had done about five EKG.. and none  of them indicated anything bad ! and all possible blood test and it showed normal .. the doctor said it was anxiety  and panic attacks. but ..i could not accept..!

should i quit worrying about my heart due to it has been beating faster everyday and i do not know what is going on and sometimes i feel dizzy for no reason, sweating, sometimes i feel like my body shakes and i even experienced chest aches.  but all the test show excellent. i am confused and afraid.

I feel you can trust that your heart is fine, and your worrying about it makes it worse.  When we are stressed everything speeds up which also means our heart beats harder and faster.  Worrying about something being wrong is causing your heart to race, so you need to put that worry to rest.  Worry and stress is very hard on our hearts, so the sooner you stop worrying the better.  If anything was wrong it would have shown up in the tests.  What you may want to look at is anxiety, as you are presenting with some symtpoms of this.  See a psychiatrist for an evaluation and go from there.  Maybe some therapy will help you from worrying so much.  Know you're not alone, and read thru some of the posts on here and you will see all the problems that anxiety can cause. Do what you need to in order to get your life back so you can be happy.  Take care.

Hi There I had the same thing fear with my heart...I was the same way but I couldn't believe them....my heart does these weird flip flops but worse when I am stressed or if I drink to much caffiene anyways I decieded I would rest until I got all the work ups haha I did and my heart is perfectly fine (i still have my worries but not as bad) all I have is PVCs which are irregualr heart beats and there bengin but super annoying I get short of breath when i get them sometimes but other than that I try me best to ignore them. Honestly if you don't feel comfortable or you know you wont until you seek furthur help than do that see a cardiologist! :) I hope this helps but I think that your feling of your heart is anxiety and anxiety def makes it worse!!!
