I'm experiencing this pain on the left side of my chest, right around the heart area, and I'm not sure if it's something heart-related. It comes with shortness of breath, a lot of burping, and I've been dealing with some acidity and gastric issues as well. Do you think this is more about my heart or my stomach acting up? Which kind of doctor should I talk to about this?

I've recently had some blood work done and found that my ALT and AST levels are off, even though everything else seems to be within the normal range. I don't have any stomach pain or anything unusual like that, so I'm a bit confused about what might be going on. Last month, I took Augmentin 625mg, Emanzen D, and Pan 40mg for five days, and about a year ago, I was on some medication for hair treatment that lasted around four months, though I can't remember the name of it. Could you help me understand what might be causing these abnormal numbers?
Based on your test results showing elevated ALT and AST levels, along with your history of recent medications such as Augmentin 625mg, Emanzen D, and Pan 40mg, it is possible that drug-induced liver injury may be a contributing factor. Additionally, the previous medication for hair treatment taken one year ago could also have played a role. To address the elevated liver enzymes, it is important to discontinue any potentially offending medications. In this case, Augmentin 625mg, Emanzen D, and Pan 40mg should be stopped. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your liver function.

So, I recently found out I have gallbladder stones and I'm going to have laparoscopic surgery soon. As part of the prep, they did some tests and my ECG came back showing Sinus Arrhythmia. I'm a bit worried and wondering if that's something I should be concerned about. Do you think my ECG is normal, or could there be an issue there? Also, if there is a problem, would it affect my upcoming surgery? I've also been dealing with some symptoms that might be related, like really bad acidity for the past four months, frequent burps and hiccups, feeling nauseous, and pretty intense acid reflux. It's like a liquid moves up my food pipe to my throat and causes pressure in my chest and around my food pipe. Also, I often feel short of breath during the day, but it seems to get better when I lie down. Do you think this shortness of breath is because of the gallbladder or could it be a cardio issue linked to the ECG results?
