weird chest thing

for the last three or so days, it has felt like my heart is running too fast. occasionally my chest feels tights.

i was at the hospital the other day and sneakily checked my heart rate and SATS when nurse was out of the room and they were normal.

i did use to have panic attacks, and it sort of reminds me of that feeling. but am not sure. and obviously the more i worry about it the worse it seems to get.

sounds like the early part of a panic attack. Usually your heart starts racing first. Have you still a lot of stress going on? (sorry haven't seen any of your threads for a while.

Maybe lol! Or sometimes this can happen after the event IYSWIM. You think and feel absolutely fine but deep down you are still stressed and this is your body showing it. Happened to me once, had been through a period of loads of stress but came through it all felt fine and suddenly in bed one night had a massive panic attack. I hadn't been thinking of anything stressful at the time so I couldn't understand it.
