What Cause Irregular Heart Beats To 72 Year Old?
I just had very very heart beat in my chest lasted approx 15 minutes - it has calmed down but now I'm scared.
PS I am 72 years of age - I was bending to put something in the oven = I put my feet up very high now I just have a pain in my left shoulder - I do have neck problems.

Hello!
Thank you for asking on HCM!
Your symptoms could be related to a cardiac arrhythmia.
I recommend going to the ER for a careful physical exam and some tests:
- a resting ECG
- a chest X ray study
- some blood lab tests (complete blood count, cardiac enzymes, blood electrolytes).
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
