What Causes Chest Pin Sensation?
I'm a 33 year old male, 6' (182 cm) tall, weighing in at about 185lbs. I have been experiencing a strange sensation near my heart around mid morning for a few days. It's not quite pins and needles, but it's none the less alarming. My family never had heart issues for generations.
I have weaned myself off coffee, and have been caffeine free for about 4 days.
I have recently increased my sleep, have a good diet, and am in good shape.
I have been steadily increasing my exercise with weights for 15 months, recently increasing cardiovascular exercise to 20 minutes with a steady heart rate of about 150 beats per minute.
What is the source of the chest pin sensation?
