Not bad if heart has no problem,need investigations...
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
I have gone through your question carefully and understood your concerns.
There are thee main reasons why you might have had wild heartbeat on the left part of your stomach under ribs:
1. Heart problems
2. GERD
3. Drugs you might be using
If it was only one episode, that was not repeated, then, it might have been because you were too emotionally involved or taking any drug.
If the episodes keep repeating, then, further investigations are needed to determine the right cause:
- ECG, stress test, holter monitoring to rule out heart problems
- upper endoscopy to rule out GERD or other stomach issues
At your age (22 years old), hormonal changes can make you too sensitive or too emotional. Heart is working faster when you get panicked or emotionally involved, that's why you feel wild heartbeat. However, I still think you should get further evaluations to rule out major problems. If everything is ok, then, it is because you might be too sensitive.
All the best!
