Detailed Answer:
Hello

After going through the medical details provided by you I understand your concern for your health and I would like to tell you that the symptoms which you are experiencing doesn't seems like a cardiac issue.

Also all your basic important cardiac screening tests are normal which make any underlying cardiac pathology highly unlikely.

Probably it's due to some muscle soreness, so it's advisable to take rest and don't indulge yourself in any sort of heavy physical activity. You can also try sone hot water fomentation. Hopefully that will be helpful.

Kind regards
