I'm really concerned about this numbness and tingling I feel on my left side sometimes. It's strange because I don't have high blood pressure or diabetes, though I do struggle with indigestion and I suspect some gas issues. My heartbeat and ECG are normal, and there's no history of heart problems in my family. I'm trying to figure out why these sensations happen. Should I see a cardiologist, or is there another specialist you recommend? This has got me feeling pretty nervous and unsure about what to do.

Based on your symptoms, it is possible that the numbness and tingling pain on the left side could be related to nerve compression or irritation. Since you mentioned that your heart beat and ECG are normal, it is less likely to be related to a cardiac issue. The indigestion and gas problems may also contribute to these symptoms due to referred pain. I recommend consulting a Neurologist for a detailed evaluation and further management. They can conduct specific tests to determine the exact cause of your symptoms and provide appropriate treatment. For your indigestion and gas issues, you can take over-the-counter antacids like "Ranitidine" 150mg twice daily before meals to help with the symptoms. Additionally, you can try simethicone-based medications like "Gas-X" to relieve gas discomfort. Make sure to follow up with a Neurologist for a comprehensive assessment.

I'm not sure what's going on, but I've been feeling really dizzy whenever I'm sitting, standing, or even talking to someone. It's making it tough to do simple things. Plus, I can't seem to look at anything that rotates without feeling worse. I got a brain CT scan done, but it came back normal, and the meds I've tried, like Vertistar, Sturgeon, and Gravol, aren't doing anything for me. Im still struggling. Can you help me figure out what's happening?
