Question

I sometimes experience this sharp, pricking sensation in my chest, but it only lasts for a few seconds. Other times, its like a quick, intense catch pain that doesn't last longer than about 23 seconds. I've already done all my blood tests and cardiogram, and everything came back normal. Can you help me understand what's causing this pain?

Question

I'm 27 and I've been getting these chest pains and sometimes my heart just races out of nowhere. Every now and then, I also find it a bit hard to breathe. What do you think could be going on?

Question

I've been taking propranolol 10mg for my anxiety whenever needed, and it's been a big help. But lately, I've had to take it every day for about a week, and now I'm experiencing this sharp, stabbing pain in the center of my chest that goes to my back. I'm not sure if it's just anxiety or something more serious. I'm a healthy 26-year-old guy, and my resting heart rate is between 52 and 56 bpm, but sometimes it drops into the 40s. I do have a history of gastroparesis. Do you think this chest pain could be an issue related to the medication or something else going on?

Question

I'm about 5 feet 3 inches and weigh 70 kg. I've been taking olmetrack 20 mg for the last year, but now my blood pressure is at 13084. I was wondering if I could switch to taking olmighty 20 mg instead, since it's cheaper. Are these two medications different in any way?
