I'm really concerned because I've noticed my heartbeat is pretty low, around 44 beats per minute. There are moments when I feel completely exhausted, and at times, it's hard for me to breathe, almost like I might pass out. It's really scary. Could this be something serious? What should I do?

I'm having this weird pinching chest pain right after I fall asleep. I got two ECGs, one in January and another in February, to check it out, and both were normal. I also did a TMT in February, and that came back negative too. I've tried taking anti-acids to relieve the pain, but they don't seem to be helping. I'm starting to get a bit worried. What could be going on, and what should I do next?

It sounds like you may be experiencing acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) causing your chest pain. In this case, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) like omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Gaviscon after meals and at bedtime for immediate relief. Make sure to avoid spicy and fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down right after eating. If symptoms persist, you may need further evaluation by a gastroenterologist.

I've recently been switched from Telma 40 to Cardivas 3.25, and I'm a bit unsure about the dosage. Is Cardivas 3.25 a lower dose compared to Telma 40, or are they about the same? Would you be able to clarify this for me?

cardiva is advised for heart disease and telma is for BP medications..
