Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I passed carefully through your question and understand your concern.
It is important making a careful differential diagnosis of your symptoms:
- a backbone disorder, leading to irradiating pain in the arms, related to a
slipped disc could mimic this symptomatology.
-an
ischemic heart disease, could explain the pain while exercising, but not the irradiating pain in both arms.
-gastro esophageal reflux, could be related to
heartburn during physical activity.
I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical examination and some tests:
-resting ECG
-chest X ray study
-cervico-thoracic column X ray study
-lab blood tests (
complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate, amylaze plasma levels, kidney and liver function tests).
A cardiac
stress test may be needed to exclude a cardiac ischemic disease if suspicions are raised.
A fibrogastroscopy may be needed if all the above tests result normal, to exclude possible reflux.
Hope to have been helpful!
Greetings!
Dr. Iliri
