What Causes Pain In The Chest And Neck With Dizziness?
For 2 months Ive had a headache daily. In 1997 I had ablation surgery for SVT. For many years I ve been symptom free. Over the last year I ve had more episodes of Svt. The past couple months more often then not . Im finding that I m having up to 15 episodes a day, they are acompanied by Chest and neck pain, sometimes arm pain and dizziness. I also notice my hands sweat alot and my feet and hands get blue in color. I guess what I m asking is... does this sound typical of Svt or could there be more going on ? I know the symptoms are similar to anxiety. I ve taken medication for anxiety and it does nothing for these symptoms. This also dosn t feel like any kind of anxiety I ve had in the past. Most times i have an episode I m relaxed and sitting. Any Ideas would be great. Thank you
Your symptoms could be related to a metabolic disorder (including thyroid gland dysfunction).
For this reason, I recommend checking your thyroid hormone levels. It is also necessary performing an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring in order to investigate for possible cardiac arrhythmia, including SVT.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
