Hi, I also suffer from periodic irregular heart beat. I feel a slight presure on my chest and the left side of the chest including left arm sometimes feels uncomfortable(also presure). Sometimes I also feel like an air bubble is bursting in my heart and sometimes get out of breath when climbing stairs. About one year ago, I went and had many test done on my heart including a stress test and everything came back normal. My doctor said I had a very strong heart and not to worry. Over a year later the symptoms are still there. I live with it, since I received a clean bill of health from my cardiologist, it did not worry me. Here is where it gets weird. The other day I met this woman who claimed to be a psychic and out of the blue without asking her anything she tells me that she has a message for me. That I need to get my heart checked because she sees a small bloodclot on the left side of my heart. I freaked out. I did not appreciate her giving me information I did not ask for but now I am worried about it. My question is could this be a possibility, is there another test I could take to see if this shows up? Any help I could get regarding this will be greatly appreciated Jackie IP: Logged |

Hi, I know how you feel, cause I would probably also worry about something like that, but you know, psychics are so full of crap!! Once, when I was going through terrible anxiety attacks when we lived in Tulsa, I called a tarot card reader, and she saw the card of death, which completely freaked me out, of course. Here I was having these terrible anxiety attacks, and that sure helped!! Anyway, this was about 7 years ago now. And, just recently, the kids and I were having fun at this tourist type place, and went into a psychic, and she tried to scare us with different things, and she said I HAD to come back and pay all this money so she could light these candles for me for 8 days or something, or my life would never be good, blah blah blah. BUT, I know how you could worry about something like that, and if you want, you could just make a trip to your doctor and tell him what she said, and they could do an echo or something like that, and that would totally rule it out, and then you would feel better, and not go to a psychic again! It seems weird to you that she hit on something that has been bothering you (your heart) but it's actually not, they say very general things and so many people have some kind of heart symptom, that a comment like that would throw most people. Try not to worry about it, and get it checked out just so you can have peace of mind for the future. You'll be fine!! Good luck, Val IP: Logged |

Jackie, Do not worry about whether or not your having a heart attack. Many people worry that an ache or pain or sensation is heart related. I did the same for years. Feel good about what your cardiologist told you. IP: Logged |
