Question

im 21 male for a few months my heart rate has been flucating alot sometimes its 75-85 other times its in the 90s sometimes maybe even a little over 100 its at its fastest when i wake up in the morning and i wake up sweating even with the air on..for about 6 weeks ive been having chest pains there on and off all day most of the time more on then off and the pain is also in my rib area the pains dont happen together my chest and ribs are only tender to touch sometimes not everytime very little,,ive been to the er,dr,cardioligst..they have done alot of blood work on me,chest xray,several ekgs,echocardiogram,and 24 hour holter monitor, and all that stuff seems to be fine it did get somewhat worse this weekend..theres no triggers to cause the pain it just happens i did notice after i get up im not in alot of pain the pain really starts kicking in 1-3 hours after im up and walking and sitting around mostly sitting,it happens when im sitting standing or laying down

im expeierenced when it comes to anixtey i know my anxiety has been making my pulse rise that could be the cause of of the heart rate or could be adding to that but the pain i dont believe is anxiety cause i was in pain for 3 of the 6 weeks and i was living my life just fine then the pain got worse and thats when my anxiety kicked in cause i was scared and i am scared that it got worse and it doesnt help the area that the pain is it that makes me worry but i know whatever is causing the pain i know isnt anxiety i know im havign anxiety due to the pain increase

i never said i feel anxiety then pain starts its the opposite thats why i say its not anxiety the cause of the pain i feel extreme pain then my anxiey kicks in cause i worry about the pain which im sure anyone would in the given situation

and i dont know why your talking about it going up when you rush into a store or move fast im saying mine goes up without any of that like when i wake up its at its highest and thats before even sitting up and its goes back and forth all day without doing anything

One of your previous questions:
went to the dr today he gave me 3 medicines one is xopenex hfa(levalbuterol tartrate) which he gave me instead of the albuterol cause i think i overdosed on the albuterol and caused my chest tightness and hes says it weaker and has less side effects on your heart..and he gave me a steroid inhaler called azmacort(triamcinolone acetonide) and singulair..just wanted to update all of you and see if you think this is a good selection of medication

Answer 2

ok, let's try to figure this out together...you have anxiety then you get pain, you have pain then you get anxiety. You had your heart checked out and nothing's wrong....bingo! it must be the anxiety that's the problem. As you know the mind can play tricks on the body, and you can even talk yourself right into a physical illness, so doctors say. So are you taking anti-anxiety medication now? If not then get some. Talk with your psychiatrist (the one who would give you a prescription) in person (at an appointment) or a psychologist would teach you to use biofeedback. But this info is only useful to you if you "want to" do what they tell you, if you "want to" solve the problem.

When you said about your heartbeat first I thought wow, that's normal, why is this person concerned? And, mine has been up to 98 when I "rushed" into a store to buy groceries and walked fast. So see, I don't see a problem with your heart rate.

Once I felt pain around the heart and the doctor said it was either from exercising (and doing exercises that I hadn't done before or done in a long time), or it was just the natural reaction of the muscles around the heart. And he was right.

So in my opinion, relax and find something to do to take your mind off of thinking about you.

Answer 3

I had this they called it tracardia or something. Mine was due to a combination of caffine (tea and or coffee and soda) and the allergy med I was taking. I switched allergy meds and stopped all caffine and it went away.
It could be anxitey too. (I have panic attack disorder but got it under control) Try zoning out when it happens,just stop close your eyes and imagine being on a beach listening to waves- usually it is in the mind- you freak out and up your pulse goes. I am willing to bet it is a good chance it is anxiety. I knwo you want a medical problem with a quick fix, but first try and weed out all other things- caffine, other meds, and anxiety.
