Let me start out by saying that I am overweight, have high bp and high triglycerides. I am just beginning to lose weight and hope that I can get all of these things back to normal.
I have always had palpitations and some chest pain. I went to a cardiologist about 14 years ago for the first time in my early 20s. I was diagnosed with Mitral Valve Prolapse and was told this was the source of my palps and pain. So, I didn't worry about it anymore. Until...
About a year and a half ago, I started having a racing pulse and more palps than normal. I went to my doctor and he said all looked fine, but he wanted me to get my Mitral valve checked since it had been awhile. So off I went to a cardiologist. The cardiologist did several tests and all looked ok. She told me I do not have Mitral Valve Prolapse though.
I was ok for about a year and a half since I knew my heart passed the tests. However, the past week I've been having lots of palps and chest pain. I can no longer blame this on my Mitral Valve so now I am worried. I keep reading that women can have very little or no chest pain during a heart attack.
Help!
