Strong heartbeat , cold sensation
Posted: 09-22-08 04:29am

Hello, I'm a 19 year old male, and since last year i started having occasional strong heartbeat,chest pressure, pain in my left arm, sometimes "pins and needle" feeling in my tongue and in one occasion strong chest pain around my heart which lasted several minutes.

Several months afterward I went to a doctor, made an ECG, except some "prolapse" she said everything looks normal, prescribed me some vitamins and pointed me on doing an echo heart scan and blood analysis, which i never did cause i don't have medical insurance. But i didn't had many troubles since then, i felt chest pressure and palpitation, but it was tolerable.

Two days ago while sitting in front of the computer i felt strong heartbeat and "pins and needles" feeling in my tongue, like there is no blood circulation. Also I'm experiencing cold sensations around my heart, and my right hand and leg and going numb, probably no circulation, when i lay on my back or left side(though i was laying on my left side several hours ago and the numbness got better). And sometimes i feel a piercing pain through my chest and stomach.

Sorry for the long post, I hope somebody can help me.
Thanks in advance.

I think you'll need to find a clinic that offers free or sliding scale medical exams to follow up on the echo heart scan and blood analysis requirements. Otherwise, it's conjecture rather than diagnosis.
