I'm 31, female, 120lbs. I exercise very regularly (~30km per week of running). My resting heart rate is ~50 bpm and my BP is ~110/60. Recently, I've been getting stabbing chest pains. Nothing too painful, but otherwise just annoying. In fact i would say on a scale of 1-10, the chest pains would rate about a 1 or 2. In addition to this, I've been noticing some skipped beats while exercising - not too often, maybe 4 skipped beats in the past 3 months - 2 while exercising and 2 at rest. I did the full cardio set of tests - ECG, echo, stress ECG, blood tests, and all came back perfectly normal except for highish cholesterol. Dr says that i'm perfectly healthy and should live a long life, and that my slow heartbeat is natural for an athlete/ runner. He says chest pain is not cardiac in nature due to it being stabbing (versus dull pressure /crushing), fleeting, and localized (ie. i can pinpoint the location of the chest pain). I never got to mention the skipped heartbeats to him, until i was reminded off them after my visit while I was going all out on a run to celebrate that nothing was in fact wrong with me. Should i be concerned about the skipped heartbeats? It was terrifying whne it happened!! Please help. Should i consult with doctor again? I have a marathon coming up soon, and now don't know what to do.
