Hi,
As you have this heaviness feeling in your chest, should monitor your blood sugar and blood pressure (BP) levels to see if they are spiking. The tightness in your right arm could be due to muscular problems. However, we should see what your BP and sugar levels are.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Albana Sejdini,
