I'm feeling pretty worried because I've been dealing with dizziness and lightheadedness for about three weeks now, and on top of that, I've had chest and shoulder pain for the past 45 days. Could these symptoms be related? I'm really anxious about whether this might be a heart issue. What do you think?

The symptoms you are experiencing, such as dizziness, lightheadedness, chest pain, and shoulder pain, could be related to a heart problem. It is important to seek medical attention promptly. You may need to take medications like Aspirin 75mg for chest pain and Clopidogrel 75mg for heart protection. Additionally, you may require further evaluation and tests such as an ECG, echocardiogram, or cardiac enzymes to determine the cause of your symptoms and the appropriate treatment.

View allI've been having this sudden sharp chest pain that comes and goes in about 3 minutes. It gets worse when I breathe deeply or move around. Sometimes it just goes away on its own, but other times drinking water or taking Omeprazole 20mg seems to help. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d,orally once daily for 14 days ,syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 14 days.Also avoid spicy and hot items is advised to the patient.

I'm a 39-year-old guy and I used to do a lot of sports about 20 years ago. Last May, I had an angiogram that showed a myocardial bridge in my mid LAD, causing 30% systolic narrowing. The doctor said it's nothing serious and pretty normal, but sometimes I still get chest pain and it even goes down my left arm. This pain usually kicks in during the evening and can last through the night. It's weird because it happens in phases, like I'll have it for about 10 days, then it'll disappear for a month or so, only to come back again. I went to see a gastroenterologist too and they think I might have GERD. I had an upper GI endoscopy and they found an H. Pylori infection, so they put me on pantoprazole. That helped a bit, but I still get the chest pain sometimes. I'm anxious a lot, and the doctors mentioned that might be making both the pain and the GERD worse. The heart doctors say the angiogram was normal and that's the gold standard, so they're not worried. I've started exercising, doing yoga, changed my diet, and managed to lose about 5kg. I even cut down on smoking to just one cigarette a day. What do you think might be going on here with this recurring pain?
You are doing great and no need to worry continue the same and have a regular follow up with your doctor

I've been dealing with some heart issues after my open heart surgery in 2016 for ASD closure. Lately, I've noticed that my resting heart rate at night sometimes drops below 55, and it feels like my heart might be skipping a beat now and then. Although my 2D Echo results are normal aside from a Grade I diastolic dysfunction, every time I do an ECG at the clinic, it shows a high heart rate but with a sinus rhythm. I've been on Seloken XL 50 every morning and Telmisartan 20mg for the past month, and my doctor wants me to continue for another three months, saying it's just anxiety. I'm kind of worried, though, about whether there's anything concerning with the low heart rate. What should I do?
