I have been having chest pain for at least 6 months. I get an awful pain in the center of my chest that come one without cause. Most of the time I am at rest, but, the episodes have gotten longer and more painful. I am currently sitting in the ED, because I had an episode so painful I could not tolerate it. My husband called EMS, but I brought myself to avoid the large bill for an ambulance ride. I saw a cardiologist in June and the echo did not show anything significant. Any advice or recommendations? I have the feeling I am going to be told I am “normal”.
I have the same thing. Everything comes back normal. I am on a low dose of propranolol (10 mg. twice a day) and it controls it for the most part. I can not have ANY caffeine, that is an automatic trigger for me. I do have Mitral Valve Prolapse but it’s not bad at all so they said the pain is not from that just from POTS. Do you have POTS?
i have chest pain all the time magnesium seems to be helping. i also have supraventricular tachycardia, a-fib, average heart rate 96 bpm, pvc’s premature atrial beats, maximum heart rate 214. even with all this i was told i’m a woman and they do not have heart problems. i see a cardiologist at the cleveland clinic on the 18th of this month hope i get a better.

I I don’t know yet if I have POTS. I think I probably do. I was told the chest pain is due to the joints along my rib cage. I don’t know if I believe it, because I continue to have pain and it is severe at times.
