Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I am a 33 year old healthy female with left sided chest discomfort as well as lower rib pain. I have also been experiencing increased anxiety and heart palpitations as well as a general feeling of noticing my heart beating. I saw a physician s assistant and was diagnosed with costocondritis. She did hear PVCs during her assessment and had an EKG done which was normal. CMP CBC TSH all normal. Can a musculoskeletal ailment like costocondritis cause the heavy heartbeat I am feeling?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No, Costco Chat Doctor.  But no need to worry about heart diseases because your ECG is normal. Possibility of uncontrolled anxiety as a cause for your palpitations and heavy heart beat is more. So better to consult psychiatrist first. Get done counseling sessions and try to identify stressor in your life. Start working on its solution. You may need additional anxiolytic
