if your EKG is coming back normal, you have nothing serious to worry about. it sounds like you're experiencing heart palpitations, which can be a little painful. is there anything specific that triggers it?

There's nothing worry about till they're is. Meaning there's no point in worrying about something that may or may not happen.

The stress test is valuable. They will start you off slowly on a treadmill and slowly increase the speed until you say to stop. Often it doesn’t show anything until you are running hard. Good luck.

so my ekg could come back fine but the stress test will show how my heart acts when I'm moving g really fast that's how they can find something?
