It started at a time when I took a Hyrdocicut. I had really bad symptoms from it such as a panic attack and chest pain for months. Now its just that I feel some sort of tension, I cant describe how it feels, I just know when I feel it, it is usually followed with hard 'thump' where my heart it. I don't feel dizzy, out of breath or anything and my nothing hurts but its a cause for concern and I don't know how and what I should do or how would I explain this to a doctor.

Thank you.
I suggest you start with what you've just said here.
If you haven't seen a doctor with regards to your chest pains at all then I would recommend you just get on with it.
It is difficult to establish from your post whether you are still on hydroxycut or whether you have stopped it already but I suggest if you haven't, stopping it right now will be important. Hydroxycut has active cardiac stimulants such as caffeine that are designed to increase your metabolism which gives its weight loss properties. If you are having palpitations, panic attacks and chest pains then this all screams to me a reason to stop taking it. Especially if you are already taking other stimulants such as coffee or cola as you are just boosting the doses.

The truth is that in the absence of such stimuli, there shouldn't be much of a problem, however, it concerns me that you are describing these symptoms as ongoing. I think you should make an appointment to see your doctor immediately. At the very least they should do an ECG/EKG and a cardiac examination on you as it may be that your heart is predisposed to being overly excitable. If it is, it may be nothing, or it may be a treatable something. At the very least you need to get the ball rolling as you only have one heart.
