Has anyone had a chest muscle spasm, twitching, or cramping that felt kind of like heart palpitations?
I have had episodes that feel like something bumping in the center of my chest and simultaneously feel like weight or constriction on my lungs. The episodes are very short (15-20 seconds) and repeat randomly. At first I thought I was having heart palpitations. My neuro sent me for a full workup at the hospital. My ekg was clear, clear chest xray and CT. They observed me on a heart monitor for 12 hours and everything was fine. So I'm wondering if what I'm feeling is some type of chest muscle fasiculations or spasm/cramp??
I do get a lot of muscle cramps in the parts of my body that are currently affected. Chest would be a new one though, ive never had anything there so far.
