I'm feeling this weird breathlessness when I lie down, but it goes away if I turn to my side. I don't have a cough or fever, and I consider myself pretty healthy otherwise. Should I be concerned about this?

Question

I've been dealing with chest pain for the past six months, and it only happens when I take a deep breath. The pain is right in the middle of my chest.

I've been taking metoprolol 50 mg once a day for the past 3 years, but I'm experiencing some side effects like weight gain, gas, indigestion, abdominal swelling, and a puffy face.
