cold fealing across chest

Has anyone ever experienced a cold fealing across the chest, almost like I have icy-hot on my chest. I was recently in the hospital for atrial fibrilation but doc said I was normal.

maybe some people on the Heart Rhythm section could shed some light on it.  I think the Dr posts there off and on also.  If not, his alter ego might could help you.

I have!! Scared the **** out of me too!! Mine started " out of the blue" one night...the icy-hot feeling started in my back, came around to the front --it was absolutly terrifying...the first couple times..but the feeling only lasted about 30 seconds to a minute..and was gone... then would come back--but I mentioned it to my Dr she wasnt too concerned, and after I observed when I had them...Ive sort of determined them to be part of a severe anxiety attack...
