I've been noticing that every time I use my cellphone, I start to get this strange chest pain. It's like my phone is somehow affecting my lungs, and then I have trouble breathing and my mouth feels really dry. I also think it's affecting the blood flow to my brain because I've been having these major memory issues and my mind just feels foggy. It's been happening for almost two years and seems to be getting worse. I'm really worried about my cognitive decline, like I can't remember things or visualize clearly. Is there something wrong with me specifically or has anyone else experienced this too? And is there any way to medically deal with it? I do notice that the chest pain eases up when I stay away from my phone.

Question

I'm having this weird tingling sensation in my left eye, almost like when you feel a pulse or beat in a nerve. My eyelids twitch a bit when it happens too. It's been going on for about 45 days now. I'm wondering if this might be what we call "aankh fadakna" in Hindi. What could be causing this?

Question

I've been having this weird twitching in my neck whenever I turn my head to the side or sneeze. I have MVP with mild regurgitation. Could this be related? Or is it maybe something else like JVP? Id really appreciate some advice.

Question

I'm experiencing this lingering mild pain in my head and my head just feels so heavy that it's making it tough for me to get my work done. I can't really focus because I'm not feeling good. Could this have something to do with my eyes? Any advice on what I should do?
