What Causes Chest Pain Along With Palpitations And Excessive Sweating?

Hi, I m a 45 yr old woman. I am not overweight and eat healthily but am pretty inactive as I was diagnosed with ME 6 years ago. In January 2017 I had a big pain in my chest like stabbing knives under left breast in two places (far left of breast and on right). This was followed by palpitations (fast heart rate) then more all night (irregular) and I was sweating profusely. These symptoms continued three weeks so I paid for a private cardiologist who did an echo and said structurally my heart was sound. Ok. In March things still the same so after feeling like an elephant sat on my chest all night I took a trip to hospital. They did EKG and took blood but said no problems. Last month still no improvement. Two trips to GP and she says she just doesn t know! Then any amount of stress started racing heart and massive pains in lower and upper heart area. This is followed by days of skipped heartbeats and terrible pain again under breast and to side. I feel suicidal. I ve tried everything for answers and right now my parents are helping me care for my kids and I can t even walk a block without palps and pain. A few days ago my husband and I argued and I had chest pain and have since been house/bed bound. What the hell is happening to me? Thanks

Hello,

According to the history, the next step is to control the lungs. You should do a chest x-ray for it.
