Question

I'm really struggling with some left side chest tightness I've been having for the past couple of months. Sometimes it spreads to my shoulder and neck, and it even feels like something is stuck in my throat. I've gone through a bunch of cardiac tests like an ECG, Echo, treadmill test, and blood work, and they've all come back normal. I've also seen an ENT, an internist, and a neurologist. They all say everything looks fine. I'm on meds for my blood pressure (Amlopine 5mg) and cholesterol (Atorvastatin 20mg), and both are normal according to my recent check-up. But I'm still not feeling any better. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?

Question

I've noticed that every now and then, after I eat, I get this feeling of suffocation where it's hard to breathe, even when I make sure to eat my food slowly. It's starting to worry me and I just can't figure out why it's happening. Could it be something serious, or maybe just how I'm eating? Any advice on what might be going on would be really helpful.

I'm dealing with some really intense anal itching at night and it's getting so bad that it's ruining my sleep. I'm not sure what's causing it, but it's becoming unbearable. Could it be something serious, or is there a simple remedy I can try? What steps should I take to get some relief?

Question

I'm dealing with acidity frequently, almost every day, and I've been drinking around 10 to 15 glasses of water to try and manage it. I've also noticed something strangesometimes there's this white jelly-like substance coming up with my sputum. There's no other symptom I'm experiencing, but this has got me a bit worried. What could be causing this?
