If your doctor won’t look into it, at the next appointment request his refusal in writing and then tell him that you are firing him and would like to find a second opinion. That sometimes changes their minds

Please get different opinions. One doctor’s opinion is not the end all be all. There is a doctor that will listen. Getting a different opinion literally saved my life a couple years ago

Could be tachycardia which is a blanket statement for any type of heart beat too fast issue. Get seen by a cardio and be prepared for a long journey, it can be a digestive issue, mental issue anything….
