I'm a bit worried since I tested positive for COVID on May 17th but didn't have any symptoms except for a dry throat. I'm feeling better now, but since May 27th, I've been experiencing a mild burning sensation in my chest and some pain in my left shoulder and hand every now and then. I've been taking doxycycline and dolo 650 twice a day for 6 days, and ivermectin 12mg for 4 days. I've also been using vitamin tablets and adding spices like pepper, cloves, and cinnamon to my food for 9 days. My oxygen levels are around 98-99 and my pulse is 80. Apart from that, I don't have any other health issues. I'm also using pan d tablets, but I'm still feeling the burning in my chest. Could you please help me understand what's going on?

View allI'm really worried about my grandma. She's 87 and has no history of diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease; but she recently had a silent heart attack. She started complaining of breathlessness a few days later, and tests showed a weakened heart. They treated the pulmonary edema with lasix, and her pulse saturation seems stable now. Should we consider going for angioplasty?

I've been having this discomfort in my left arm and shoulder that doesn't get worse when I exercise, and resting doesn't seem to help either. Plus, I've been experiencing sudden breathing difficulties along with sweating every couple of evenings, and it's really exhausting, but strangely, no chest pain like a heart attack. These symptoms were there about a year ago but felt less frequent. Now, it's been more than a month and it's happening more often. A year back, my ECG, ECHO, TMT, and Holter tests came back normal, along with normal TSH, lipid profile, vitamin D levels, etc. The doctor thinks it might be panic attacks, but why do I still have this persistent arm pain? If it was a heart issue, shouldn't there have been complications by now? What do you think I should do?
Persistent discomfort in your left arm and shoulder, along with symptoms like sudden breathing difficulties, sweating, and exhaustion, can be concerning. While it's reassuring that your ECG, ECHO, TMT, and Holter tests were normal, and your doctor suggested panic attacks, persistent and worsening symptoms warrant further evaluation. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider to reassess your condition and rule out other potential causes, such as musculoskeletal issues, nerve compression, or even conditions like GERD or anxiety disorders. Discuss your ongoing concerns with your doctor to ensure a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate management plan.

I recently had an ECG and felt really nervous during the test. The report mentioned "sinus tachycardia otherwise normal ECG." Should I be worried about this?
Sinus tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats faster than normal. In most cases, it is a normal response to stress, anxiety, or exercise. Since your ECG report shows sinus tachycardia but is otherwise normal, there is likely no cause for concern. However, if you continue to experience symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider. No specific medication is needed for sinus tachycardia, but managing stress and anxiety can help.
