Hi, I read your query very carefully.

Your concerned seem to be related to cardiac arrhythmia and chest discomfort that follow it.

I recommend to run the following exams:\
- Echo
- Holter monitoring
- Stres test

This will determine the exact nature of your problem and the best way to deal with it.

Wish you health!
