I'm 16 years old and have been having this chest pain on the left side along with a racing heart for a few months now. I got an echo test done, and it showed mild mitral regurgitation, but no other abnormalities or pathology. Is this something serious? Should I be worried or do anything specific about it?

View allI'm concerned about my heart rateit's usually over 100, and I get palpitations a lot. When I'm just lying in bed, my heart rate gets between 110-120, and even just climbing up one flight of stairs sends it up to 160. My thyroid levels are normal, though I do have a thyroid nodule. My haemoglobin is at 9, and my BMI is normal. I also have spondyloarthropathy and hidradenitis suppurativa, so my CRP and ESR levels are high. I've attached an ECG from my Apple Watch that I took during the palpitations. Is such a high heart rate normal?
Based on your symptoms and medical history, it seems like you may be experiencing tachycardia, which is an abnormally high heart rate. Given your palpitations, breathlessness, and elevated heart rate even with minimal exertion, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. Considering your conditions and symptoms, I recommend you consult a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, to help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking **Metoprolol** at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is crucial to monitor your heart rate regularly and keep a record to share with your healthcare provider for a more accurate assessment and management plan.

Is it gas or heart attack?
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'm really anxious about this pain I'm having under my left breast, and it's going down towards my rib. It's this heavy pressure that feels really tender and occasionally there's a sharp pain. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's pretty scary. There's also this sensation like bubbles in that area. What could this be? Is it something serious?
Get yourself examined by a doctor at the earliest.
