Question
Hello doctor,
I am 36 years old this year. Recently, I feel something tight in my left chest (feeling like something is pressing on my chest, uncomfortable), causing anxiety and insomnia. There are times of anxiety, rapid heart rate, cold in the body and tremors in the limbs. I drink hot ginger tea then settle down. I've never had this before, I've seen it more often these days. Doctor let me ask if left chest tightness, tachycardia is a sign of disease? Which specialist should I see? Thank you doctor.
