Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation In Chest With Palpitation
I had vein closure last week. Then two days later my heart started to have palpitations. The bm was approximate 84-97. I could feel my pulse in my neck and chest. Then I had a burning sensation in my chest from the center to the rib cage and in my abdomen. I had a cpm and lipid panel and it came back normal. I had a ECG done and it was normal. My chest burning sensation feels to be getting worse. The doctor said vitals bp 120/70 were also normal. The burning sensation is causing me to get really anxious. I am also taking ibuprofen for the leg pain and the dr. Advised to take ibuprofen pm and nexus. I'm getting really nervous. My dr. Ordered a CBC and it returned normal. What do you suggest?

Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms do not seem to be related to any cardiac disorders.
Gastroesophageal reflux could be the cause of your complaints. A musculo-skeletal pain can not be excluded too.
Coming to this point, I agree with your doctor prescription on the painkiller (ibuprofen) and the PPI for reflux (nexium).
If your situation does not improve, I would recommend performing a fibrogastroscopy.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
