For the past few months ive been having irregular heart beats.i have no medical history except very slight asthma when i was little.im a 21 year old female.Last year i had a an abortion and it really put me down.i was sad and depressed.and also i had pains in my left rib cage for about a year now and the doctor told me it was a bruised muscle and that not to worry about it.and i was concerned about that also.i was just wondering could it be axiety from worrying about whats going on with me too much?and if so what are the symptoms? could there be something with my heart?i dont have medical insurance/coverage and i owe alot to the hospital as it is from previous check ups.my family does have a history of high blood pressure.im just hoping im going to be okay.because at night i cant sleep just thinking about it. is there anything i can do to calm my self down? i need much advice needed as possible. thanks.
has anyone out there ever had this problem also?

could it be a panic attack?

Besides getting some medical attention to rule out High Blood Pressure, I would also talk to a counselor...talking about "everything that your thinking" might help make you feel less stressful.

It could be anxiety, it could be a heart murmur, but im not a doctor.. if i were you i would go to a doctor, some city's have free clinics maybe you should check into those, or check into pre paid insureance (some times its cheaper to pre pay for insurance)

My mom had something similar which completely resolved when she stopped drinking caffiene.
If you experience this without caffiene I'd get it checked out.
