All my life I have had occasional heart pain that lasted 15 seconds or so. I wonder if that is what it is?

This is exactly what I've bern looking for. Thank you for sharing. Now, is there anything we can do about it? Is it life threatening?

I'm up at 5 am AGAIN bc my heart is going like a jack rabbit.

I'm having an endoscope done this morning for nausea/bloating/diarrhea/constipation.  My gastro doc asked when the last time was that I had an EKG and any other 'heart consult'.  I couldn't remember, as I had one EKG several years ago pre dx.  So maybe this is something we should all at least inquire about.
