What Caused A Pulsating Sensation In The Right Side Of Chest?

Throughout today I have experienced a pulsating sensation in the right side of my chest (upper pec, near armpit). It is not painful; perhaps best described as a bit uncomfortable. I have a Cardiologist that I visit regularly and recently had a stress test, MRi, calcium test, heart and carotid sonograms. All tests results were good. I do take simvastatin for cholesterol lowering purposes. Should I seek help, or is this pulsating explainable? Thanks.

Hi there,

First of all you get relaxed about this condition.

Don't panic.

It could be some kind of muscle flickering.

not to do anything with your heart
