While lying down I feel tight in my throat with my pulse bounding and when I hold my phone I can also feel my phone bouncing with my pulse.. feels discomfort in throat. Which specialist to approach? I have done my ecg (normal) and went and checked with cardiologist, he checked and said my heart is fine.. 2d echo was done in sep 2020.. he said not required. I have chest pain too.. now headache and pain in eyes too with my lower back of head paining.. spo2 levels are 97-98.. is this cause of no proper sleep? I have this problem post covid and since 10 months now. Peculiar but I want a normal life.. can someone help?
Note: bp normal, hba1c is 5.9.. vit b12 and d3 in limits.. urine report suggests bacteria and I'm on niftran since 5 days which is 10 days course

If you are having palpitations, get evaluated with ECG and echo. If both are normal and significantly symptomatic, go for Holter monitoring to rule out arrhythmias.

You seem to have intermittent palpitations .Please check your Hb. It's Good to repeat ECG at the time of symptoms to diagnose the problem.
Holter study is advisable.

Have you checked you Hemoglobin level, Thyroid profile. Low hemoglobin can cause these symptoms and so can thyroid issues.
Also is this bounding pulse and throat tightness associated with fast pulse rate, uncomfortable sensation of heart beating - palpitations.
If the symptoms are post the first echo you could repeat an Echo
Also if associated palpitaions are there you can consult a cardiac electrophysiologist in your city.
Next Steps
A Cardiac electrophysiologist is a heart beat specialist. sometimes episodic pulse problems are not picked up by one time ECG. Since it is causing much discomfort to you, there are options available for long term monitoring like Holter test and so on.
