About a month ago I had an episode of severe chest pain. This came in two sets , the first lasted about ten minutes ,then a ten minute break , then 15-20 minutes of severe center of chest pain.( no pains in arm or neck , jaw, ect.) After going through the ER ,ekg and blood work show no signs of heart problems.A stress test later also came back good, However since this happened I have multiple episodes daily of skipped heart beats, I get a fluttering sensation in my chest and can feel this going on . Checking my pulse during this reveals several missed beats (i have counted up to ten in 1 minute)this happens several times everyday and i cant id a trigger for it . My md heard this and doesn't seem to be very concerned about it. I never had this before the severe chest pains so if the chest pain was not cardiac in nature why do i now have skipping heart beats ?(47 yr old male)
