I'm getting really worried because my heart feels like it's beating really loudly after I eat and right before I sleep. I'm also feeling this tightness in my chest a lot. I've been taking cough and cold meds for the last ten days, but these symptoms arent going away. What could be going on?

Is a mild concentric LVH and Grade I diastolic dysfunction something serious for a 68-year-old woman who's had a high sugar level of 250 and has been taking medication for diabetes for 6 years and heart issues for 4 years? What steps should we be taking? Is there a concern about ischemic heart disease with these symptoms, especially given the normal echo report?

Neck Pain and Burping Symptoms _Possible Causes_ 1. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Burping and neck discomfort may be related to GERD, where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. 2. _Dysphagia_: Difficulty swallowing or a sensation of blockage in the neck could be causing your symptoms. 3. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Neck pain might be related to muscle strain or poor posture. _Recommendations_ 1. _Antacids or acid reducers_: Over-the-counter medications like antacids (Tums, Rolaids) or acid reducers (Zantac, Pepcid) may help alleviate GERD symptoms. 2. _Dietary changes_: Avoid trigger foods (spicy, fatty, or acidic), eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down after eating. 3. _Physical therapy_: Gentle neck stretches and exercises may help relieve musculoskeletal tension. 4. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a gastroenterologist to rule out underlying conditions. _When to Seek Immediate Attention_ 1. _Severe symptoms_: If you experience severe neck pain, difficulty swallowing, or vomiting blood, seek immediate medical attention.

My mom has this needle-like pain in her left hand index finger and it's moving up to her chest. It happens every 10 minutes, and it's really sharp pain both in the finger and her chest. She's also complaining about pain in her neck and legs. Could this be something serious, or should we get it checked out?

.I would suggest you to get an ecg done and rule out the cardiac causes and also measure blood pressure and sugars to see if there is any fluctuations...It might be neuropathy too
