A member asked:

When i eat alot of sweets or sometimes when climb the stairs quickly my heart(left of my chest)hurt with few tingling &my left shoulder blade.why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Atypical symptoms: These symptoms are not typical of cardiac problems, but since they occur with exertion, for peace of mind, have a cardiopulmonary evaluation by your physician or a cardiologist. I'm unclear as to how the eating of sweets triggers those symptoms.
