I'm experiencing shortness of breath at times and occasionally have chest pains, though it's pretty rare. I'm a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could you offer some advice or insights into what might be going on?

I'm 20 and recently had two echocardiograms, one showing RVSP at 37 mmHg and the other at 29 mmHg. Both mentioned normal pulmonary artery and veins, and there's MVP with mild eccentric regurgitation. I'm worried about the possibility of pulmonary artery hypertension and whether it could be idiopathic. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm experiencing this chest heaviness and heavy breathing whenever I walk or do any small physical activities, and it's been going on for about three weeks now. I already went to my GP about two weeks ago and was on Azithromycin for three days, but it didnt really help. Yesterday, I started feeling some chest pain right in the center, and when I consulted a cardiologist online, they said it wasn't cardiac pain. But this morning after a little activity post-breakfast, I felt the same heaviness and then a dull pain in the center of my chest. It only lasts about 2 seconds and then disappears for a minute. The pain doesn't get worse when I breathe deeply either. Just wondering what's going on and what I should do next. Any thoughts?

take one pain killer and one antacid
