I'm having this pain that comes and goes around my chest and shoulder area, but it's mostly around my heart. I've been really stressed out these past couple of weeks and I'm worried about what it could be. I had an ECG and a chest X-ray done at a diagnostic center, and there were no issues found. I'm 28 years old and weigh 81 kilos. Could you suggest any medicine for pain relief, or do you think I should be looking into something else? I'm actually quite puzzled about what's going on.

Question

I've been feeling light-headed every now and then for the past few months. I'm 38, weigh 95 kg, and am 5'7". I don't smoke or drink, and I've been avoiding sugar and cholesterol. My thyroid level is 5.8. I recently started jogging two months ago, and my ECG says I have sinus bradycardia. Should I be worried about this? Is it related to my new exercise routine or something else?

Question

I'm really concerned because I had COVID about three months ago, and although Im better now, my chest still feels pretty heavy sometimes. At the beginning, my left hand felt numb, and I had palpitations, so I took Corbis 2.5 for about 10 days. The palpitations seem to be okay now, but the heaviness in my chest is still there, especially if I try to work out or lift heavy things. The intensity has decreased a bit, but it's still noticeable. I've had a bunch of tests like ECG, ECHO, D-dimer, CKMB, TNI, BNP, MYO, a chest X-ray, and PFT, all of which came back normal. Lately, Ive noticed that if I press on my chest, I hear a crackling sound like when you crack your knuckles. What could be causing this and what should I do about it?

Question

I'm experiencing some pain under my left collarbone since this evening. I've been dealing with acid reflux and started taking a proton pump inhibitor since Sunday. That day, I felt chills in my arms and chest, and my doctor said it might be anxiety and gave me a prescription for an antidepressant, but I'm not taking it yet. I had an ECG done on Sunday as well, and I'll include the report with my question. Also, I've got a cholesterol level of 124. Should I be concerned about this pain?
