I've been dealing with some issues since recovering from COVID back in April 2021. It's been a while, but about ten days after testing positive, I started feeling fine. However, from May 10th, I've had this chest painit happens especially when I move my upper body or when I'm lying down. There's this tenderness feeling right in the center and around my chest. I've been taking CCM tablets twice a day for a month now. I've done all sorts of tests like chest X-ray, ECG, chest CT scan, CBC, CRP, and D-dimer, and everything's come back normal. But despite all that, I'm still not getting good, deep sleep. Could you please offer some advice on what might be going on? I'm really looking for some guidance.

I'm a little worried because my Perfusion Index (PI) is consistently over 20, sometimes hitting 21, when I check my oxygen saturation with my oximeter. My saturation level is normal, between 95 and 99, and so is my heart rate. But I'm not sure if a high PI is indicative of any serious health conditions, or if it's a sign that the oximeter might be inaccurate. Could you provide some guidance on whether a high PI should be a concern, or if it's something I shouldn't worry too much about?

I've been sleeping okay at night, but for the past four days, I've been waking up around 5 am with my heart racing. It's really weird and a bit scary. On top of that, I've been dealing with GERD for the last three weeks and taking Pantocid for it. What's going on with my heart? Should I be worried?

I'm really worried about my mom. She has been experiencing chest pain and some trouble with her breathing while walking. I know she has diabetes and issues with blood pressure too. Could these problems be connected to her existing health conditions, or is this something more serious? What should we do next?
