What Causes Left Chest Heaviness With Lightheadedness?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... hi, I am 37 years old and for two days I am feeling some heaviness in my upper left chest that is not going away. I am light headed a little bit in the mornings but then it is going away. I have never had any heart problems or my family does not have history of heart disease so I am not sure about it. Would you advise me if it is something serious?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, we should definitely rule out heart diseases in your case.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes undiagnosed stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright but first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
