Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms do not seem to be related to the heart. Your heart rate seems to be within the normal ranges. Is the pain triggered by body movements or deep breathing? This would indicate a possible musculo-skeletal pain.

Coming to this point, I would recommend performing further tests to investigate for the possible causes underlying your complaints:
- A resting ECG
- A chest x ray study
- A cervico-thoracic spine X ray study
- Complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

Hope I have answered your query. I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need!

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
