Thanks for your question on Health Care.
I can understand your concern.
Left sided chest and arm tingling sensation can be due to heart related diseases.
So better to first rule out cardiac cause.
So get done
1. Ecg
2. 2d echo
3. Stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for cardiac diseases.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can cause similar tingling.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright. But first rule out cardiac cause for your symptoms.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
