I have had that same exact thing happen. It doesn't happen all the time but it has happened since I was 10 yrs old. They never ever caught it on an ekg. Later on , one of my doctors tried to attribute it to anxiety. I get rib pain too, but I don't know what causes it. A year ago, I went to a specialist and they put me on a halter monitor for my heart for 24 hours, that caught the problem. I have supraventricular tachycardia.
If this keeps happening see if your primary doctor will put you on a a halter monitor to see if it is your heart or something else. God bless.

Sorry to interrupt, but to consolidate the follow-ups, I'd like to redirect them to the main Psycho-Babble board. Here's a link:
