What Causes Painful Tingling Sensation In The Chest?

At the moment of a skipped heart beat I feel this horrible electrical pain, sort of like the esophagos and abdomen just go into a painful spasm.. Is this just a reflex from the excitement of the skipped heart beat/PVC.. I m not terribly worried about it because I ve been getting these spasms on and off for many years and nothing has really happened to me other than being terrified of them.. I suffer from thousands of PVC s a day probably from anxiety.. But these painful electrical spasms tend to rear their ugly head when I m overwhelmed with worry and stress..

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Though apparently looking as stress or anxiety associated, I strongly recommend to undertake an EKG with your physician to rule out any underlying cardiac malfunction.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
