Is it gas or heart attack?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Heart attack feels like pressure on chest cannot be relieved by antacids,associated with breathlessness. One can not entirely differentiate chest pain due to gas from chest pain due to heart attack based on symptoms only. You may need to visit a hospital and get evaluated by a health-care provider.

I've been experiencing this heavy feeling in my chest, and sometimes there's a little pain too. It's been going on for about a month now, maybe 34 days. I haven't really had any medical issues before this, so I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be something serious? Should I get it checked out?
take tablet pantoprazole for 5 days, once a day and tablet zerodol

I've been having headaches and palpitations at the same time for years, but my ECG always comes back normal, so I didn't see any point in getting more tests like a 2D echo. Lately, these issues have gotten worse, and it sometimes feels like my heart's being crushed. The only thing that helps is coughing. I've also noticed my feet are swelling. My blood work shows high cholesterol and SGPT levelswhat does that mean?
These symptoms could be indicative of underlying heart and liver issues. The high total cholesterol levels suggest a risk of cardiovascular disease, which may be contributing to your palpitations and chest discomfort. The elevated SGPT levels indicate potential liver damage or inflammation. For your condition, you can start taking medications like Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) for high cholesterol, and Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) for palpitations. Additionally, you may benefit from a diuretic like Furosemide (brand name Lasix) to help with the swelling in your feet. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
