Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you with thanks for a consult!
I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns according to the latest medical guidelines.
It may be due to the compression of the nerves of the arm. But definitely we have to alleviate your heart disease doubts. So I preferably suggest you to go for a cardiac checkup which includes a complete physical examination, EKG, Exercise stress test and if needed Holter Monitor testing of the heart. If there will be some kind of issue related to heart, your Cardiologist may also go for the Angiography.
It is all a sequential diagnostic test strategy. Sometimes an Echocardiography can also be needed for seeing the flow of blood and to see the chambers of the heart.
Hope I answered all of your questions. Please click on 'I Find This Answer Helpful' and don't forget to add your precious positive feedback to help me able to assist you better in future too.
