What Does Shocks In Chest With History Of Heart Issues Indicate?
HI,
my husband gets shocks in his chest, sometimes three in a row, and they come very randomly. Sometimes he won't feel them for a month, sometimes longer.
He is 32years old, and I am very scared because his father died young of heart issues.
What does this mean, and what should I do?

He may be having PVCs. With premature hx of CAD in family he should be checked with EKG, T/t, 2D Echo and for lipid test, if these tests are normal, he may lead normal life and spend more happy time with you.
