question: I have had shortness of breath, very rapid heart beat, followed by my heart feeling sore and then after the soreness there is extreme burning and pain in the heart area. This had been happening for 2 weeks. Starting very gradual but now it is happening several times a day. I am a 33 yr old female. I went to er 2 weeks ago at onset and they said anxiety. I went to my family dr. He had and echo done. Results were mild mitral valve reguritation. I also wore a holter monitor. I had periods of where my heart rate was up to 220. My dr. sent me to a cardiologist. He looked at my er report and tols me this was all anxiety. He did not even want to hear my symptoms or the progression of symptoms. Said shortness of breath could be allergies. Askes about weight gain but would not even talk to me about why I was reffered(mitral valve regurgitiation). I just want my life to go back to normal. Please help.
