Heart squeeze pain lasts 1 second

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hi, all: I'm hoping for some answers or anyone thats experiencing the same.

I'm a 32 year old female. with a history of heart palpitations, PVS etc. these crazy beats would ruin my days, till i got reassured they will not kill me. the last time my palpitations episodes got bad, i was prescribed 25mg of Metoprolol. (beta blocker) about 5 months ago. this seemed to help the beats a little: Reason that I am writing in the angina forum is because about two months ago I started getting a quick squeezing feeling in my heart that lasts about 1 to 2 seconds.

sometimes I will be at rest, last time I noticed it after a heavy work out, but no pain during working out. I exercise about four days a week and ride my stationary bike, cardio, light weight lifting. No dizziness accompanying the squeeze. i have had echos done, holter and blood tests all came back ok. but the sqeezing pain is new. could the beta blocker cause this? it feels like someone has a hold of my heart and is giving it a squeeze for one second. otherwise, no out of breath or dizzy feeling. im so worried i will drop dead.
