What Causes Fluttering In Chest,hot Flashes And Shoulder Pain?
I have fluttering in my chest for more than a week it seems more frequent today and had chest pain in the middle of my chest yesterday. I have had sweats like hot flashes and kind of a dull head ache along with left shoulder pain a couple days ago. Also feeling very tired lately. I do have a lot of stress. Anxiety or heart I just don t feel right!

hello,
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
your symptoms are quite likely to be due to anxiety.But you must rule out any heart problem especially if you are above 45 yrs of age,You have famiily hostory of Hypertension,Diabetes or high cholesterol.You should get your ECG done.If needed you should under go stress test.If it is normal then you may use antianxiolytic like aAplrazolam 0.5 mg at bed time for few weeks,
My best wishes
