Open Question: Random chest pain/palpitations?
I was lying on the couch watching a movie and all of a sudden i got chest pains and a really thumping fast heartbeat.
I grabbed a home blood pressure monitor and it said 100/60 and my pulse was 124.
It only lasted less than 5 minutes.
Is this anything to worry about?
I’m 19 and pretty thin. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t anxiety as i was totally relaxed and it just came out of nowhere..
I have a heart murmur but was told it was innocent after a chest X-Ray a year ago. Should i push for further tests?
