Can Apple Juice Causes Poking Sensation In My Heart?

Hi
Just today after I had lunch, I ate a lot , after few hours I drank apple juice , I drink apple juice everyday, after I drank the juice I start to feel like poking in my chest the heart area, it's like needle poking the pain is going and coming , so what could it be? I never had any heart problems before, is it just indigestion ? I had a blood test last month my LDL level is below the normal level because I drink apple juice and jasmine tea everyday, so now what is that poking near my heart?

Hello and thank you for using HCM.I carefully read your question and I understand your concern.You shoud not worry, its nothing serious.
My opinion as a cardiologyst is that this is nkt a heart pain.A typical heart pain is not related whith eating or drinking. An ischemic heart pain usaly is retrosternal..like heaviness,squeezing, it might irradiate to the arms, it least for 5 to 20 minutes.It is not like a nidle poking and of course it is not related whith eating proces.
An apple juice can not cause a heart pain.
It might be a digestive problem.A gastritis may cause an epigastric ,pain..irradiating toward the heart, like burning,poking.
The apple juice might aggravate a gastric problem.Or it might be just a random pain becouse you have eaten a lot.Sometimes a stomac distention gives this kind of discomfort.
So my opinion is that you have e nothing to worry about your heart.Keep monitoring this discomfort avoiding tha apple juice for a litle time and see what happens.
Whish I was helpful.Take good care.Best regards.
