Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Chest and arm discomfort in night is commonly seen with heart diseases.
So we should first rule out heart diseases in your case.
So first get done ecg and 2d echo.
If both these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes, uncontrolled stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms especially in night.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
