I have been feeling something kind of electric shock in my left chest just toward the center which is accompanied by heart palpitations for 4 months. This feeling was occasionally. I was thinking i had some heart disease or something related to the heart.
But some day it became severe and i went to the doc. After having chest xray the doc said Everything was fine and both my chest and heart. He gave me some meds and told me to check in a week. After taking med the palpitations went away and the feeling of electric shock which lasted for few minutes also disappeared. But after two weeks time i started feeling the same thing again and i also started feeling pressure like vomiting which occurred randomly. I was worried, i went to the doc. After explaining myselfhe requested for h.pylori which came positive. I was given meds called kitpylo-c to take for 2 weeks. Now am on my third day i have no stomach pain or fever . But the feeling like electric shock on my chest is severe which i feel it upto the throat. It occurs everytime i take the meds and even wen i walk it becomes severe i feel like its heart attack but i feel my heart is beating normal. Am really worried . Please help me find out wat is happening.

Hi, it doesnt sound like your heart symptom is related to H. pylori. I am sorry that I cannot advise you further.

the doc said my heart and lungs are okay, i dont have to worry. i just wanna know if this feeling is related to h.pylori

I dont think it's related to H. pylori. However, some people has reflux symptom, which can cause heart burn. Perhaps that trigger your heart palpitation problem?

hi, im on my sixth day of medication with kitpylo-c. and the feeling has significantly changed in a positive way. i feel better than before and am really great the medication is working. i dont have that oozing feeling at the centre of my chest which i felt before all the way to my throat that always made me want to belch... the doc recommended me to take medication for two weeks. i hope i will be okay.

For people who is not familiar with kitpylo-c, it is Lansoprazole + clarithromycin + tinidazole.
