What Causes Elevated Heart Rate And Chest Pain?

I have been having spells that makes me feel like I m having a heart attack. Symptoms are heart rate in the 140 s, accelerated blood pressure, Chest pains, feeling like I m going to pass out, and nausea. I went to emergency room and had nuclear stress test. I am not being treated for acid reflux which I feel that I do not have an issue with. Any ideas?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should definitely consult cardiologist and rule out heart diseases.
So get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo, stress test and Holter monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of Ecg).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright but first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
