Q: Is burping a sign of a heart attack?

I am 27 had pulmonic vavular surgery when I was 3 and so far every thing was fine. On Monday I felt sings to my heart every 10 seconds for about 20 minutes as I was driving to work so I went to the emergency. They said my heartbeat was low (54) but that I was fine that it was probably anxiety. I was reffered to a cardiologist and he said the same thing I just don't want to be misdiagnosed and then suffer a heartSo They gave a couple days off of work to recover but I am sleeping a lot , feel fatigued I can barely drive and I cannot stop burping?

 

People are saying that I am probably justr recovering. Please help!

I've been feeling the same way - tiredness, slowing of heart rate, nausea, constant burping, tightness in chest. I didn't have that surgery. Have a history of valve issues, and anxiety.
