Chest tightness

by nodnarbkcalb, Mar 19, 2009 02:24PM
I'm a 22 year old male in average shape.  A few months ago while trying to go to bed my heard started racing and felt like it was beating extremely hard.  I was so scared I couldn't sleep all night.  I went to the doctor the following day, had an eeg test which was slightly abnormal.  They did blood tests and sent me home with a 24 hr moniter, both of which turned out normal.  For a couple weeks following I still didn't feel right, tightness and aching in my chest.  Since, I have felt fine with the exception of a pretty bad case of insomnia (can't get to sleep until 3-4 every night) and when I play golf, during my swing I feel some tightness in the chest.  What could be the cause?  Anxiety?  Stress?  Any thoughts?  Thanks.
