[|Human|] why does my chest feel like a ton of bricks are on it and i cant breath and my heart pounds thru my chest every morning and if i cough hard it beats really hard to. I have been congested but my lungs are clear and it all lasts for only maybe 10 seconds
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, we should definitely rule out arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart) and other heart diseases first. So get done ECG, 2d echo, stress test and Holder monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of ECG). If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms. So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
