Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello

After going through the medical details provided by you I understand your concern for your friends health and I would like to tell you that don't worry its most likely just a muscle twitching.

I would like to know that your friend is taking the medicine regularly or not?
Does he had chest pain or chest heaviness anytime?
Does he smoke?

Kindly revert back with the required details.

Kind regards
