Panic disorder or heart attack
Helli Doctor.
Im suffering from sudden heart palpitation, numbness in both hands and arms and sweating which last around 30 minutes more or less. After doing 7-8 ECG all was normal and 2 ECOs normal as well. But once i got this kind of panic disorder my.mind says that ECG and ECOs are not accurate i have a heart issue or heart attack. Is that right that ecg and ecco and all blood tests are not accurate ? Am on escitalopram 10 mg and clomipramine hydroclride since 10 days but still suffering from this attacks!

Palpitations are not the predominant symptom of heart attack. Your symptoms are related to panic attack .

Your main problem is Anxiety. Your heart is fine you just have fear. Do not do heart tests you need a psychiatrist not a cardiologist
