Is 34 too young for heart issues?

So I was admitted a few years ago for a high heart rate and put onto ivabradine. Which cured my migraines but never lowered my heart rate. I get really breathless and fatigued

the last two weeks I’ve had chest pain. Never had chest pain in my life. Stabbing back and neck pain. I’ve felt really unwell today. Just had a lovely bath. And just been violently sick. I don’t know what to do. I’m 34 but something seems off

Did you have any scans of your heart?

No none. Sounds silly but it’s the being sick that’s making me worry there is something weird going on as I’ve had a lovely day. Lovely bath. No tummy upset or anything. And then violently sick where I’ve even wet myself.

You can be born with heart issues , if you think somethings not right best to get it seen too reguardless of age

I think I'd be going straight to A&E, especially with your history.

Thank you for taking the time to respond!

I was diagnosed with inappropriate sinus tachycardia so I guess a heart condition but never had any further investigations. I don’t know if Id feel an idiot being my age in a&e but I really do feel dreadful
