I stopped smoking about a month and a half ago, and ever since, I've been getting this weird feeling on the left side of my chest sometimes. There's occasionally some pain that only lasts for a few minutes. Plus, I notice I sometimes get short of breath and start sweating. I've found that burping can sometimes relieve the discomfort, but not always. Once in a while, the pain starts in my back between my shoulder blades or in my lower back. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about? What might be going on here?

Sometimes I get this feeling of tiredness and shortness of breath that usually lasts for a few days. I've been experiencing it on and off for the past couple of years, but there are no other symptoms accompanying it. Im a 34-year-old male, and Ive had my ECG, echo, and lipid profile checked, and everything came back normal. Could there still be a chance of a heart issue, and is there any other test I should consider?

There may still be a possibility of underlying cardiac issues. To further investigate, you can consider undergoing a stress test (TMT - Treadmill Test) to assess your heart's response to physical activity and detect any abnormalities that may not be present at rest. Additionally, a Holter monitor can be used to monitor your heart's activity over a 24-48 hour period to capture any irregularities that may not show up during a standard ECG. These tests can provide more insights into your cardiac health beyond the initial screening tests you have already done.

I'm experiencing some mild chest pain, back pain, and lightheadedness occasionally. Ive done an ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT. The cardiologist said my heart is fine and prescribed me T. Gemcal for 30 days, T. Etoshine MR for 5 days, and T. Pan D for 5 days. The ECG results show NRM and WNL, and the 2D Echo is normal. Ive attached the TMT report here. Could you take a look and let me know what you think?

"Based on the information provided, it seems like you have been experiencing mild chest pain, back pain, and lightheadedness. Your Cardiologist has ruled out any heart issues based on the ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT reports. You have been prescribed the following medications: 1. T. Gemcal - Take it for 30 days for your bone health. 2. T. Etoshine MR - Take it for 5 days for pain relief. 3. T. Pan D - Take it for 5 days for acidity or gastritis. It's good that your heart tests came back normal. If you have any further concerns or symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for a follow-up evaluation."
