Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am a 23-year-old male. A few years ago, I had heartbeats skipping but never took it seriously and did not consider it at all. This year, I had some chest pain, which happened more than once. I went to ask a doctor. He took blood tests, and all the tests came back normal. Later on, I had unexplained heart attack symptoms (chest-crushing pain extended to my left arm and shoulder, a little bit of shortness of breath). So I called the ambulance. They did an ECG and found ST elevation. They took me to the hospital and did blood tests, but it all came back normal, so later on that night, I was dismissed. I visited my doctor again.
He made a stress examination, and ECG found rare double beats with some extra volts. I can feel double beats after stress on the heart. But recently, I have been having extreme random fatigue. I feel constantly dizzy, hard to stay up, hard to keep my focus, and cannot do my daily tasks (walking and going to work normally). Sometimes, I get pain again randomly (chest pain, stabbing left shoulder, and sometimes right jaw pain, and nausea). Please help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Your symptoms are very consistent with PVCs (premature ventricular contractions). These commonly present with palpitations in young, healthy individuals. They are not life-threatening but can be worrying. I advise you to upload the results of all investigations available to you for better clarification to suggest what is next.
I hope this helps.
Please revert so I can assist you further.
Thank you.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
