I've been experiencing a sharp pain on the left side of my chest for a few seconds when I'm exercising, like jumping or running. It's been happening since last week. I've had an ECG, 2D echo, and TMT done last month and everything came back normal. I also get gas pain in my chest. But this pain specifically seems to come in the morning while I'm working out. Should I be worried that this is something serious?

Based on your description, it is possible that the chest pain you are experiencing during exercise could be due to musculoskeletal causes or related to gas pain. Since your ECG, 2D echo, and TMT tests were normal, it is less likely to be related to your heart. To help alleviate the gas pain, you can try over-the-counter antacids like Tums (dosage: as directed on the package) to relieve gas and bloating. Additionally, for musculoskeletal chest pain, you can try taking Ibuprofen (dosage: 400mg-800mg every 6 hours as needed) for pain relief. However, if the chest pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm having this issue where I feel chest tightness when I'm lying on my back, but it's fine when I sleep on my side. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be related to anxiety or some other health issue? I'm really worried and need some guidance.
Chest tightness when lying on your back that improves when you sleep on your side could be related to several factors, such as musculoskeletal issues, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety. To determine the cause, it would be best to consult with your healthcare provider. They can perform a thorough evaluation and may suggest lifestyle modifications, such as avoiding large meals before bedtime, elevating the head of your bed, or addressing anxiety through relaxation techniques or therapy. Your doctor can also rule out any serious cardiac or pulmonary conditions.

I've noticed my resting heart rate has been between 48 to 56 for the past 8 months. Lately, I've been having chest discomfort, leg restlessness, anxiety, and feeling shaky, especially when I'm really hungry and my heart rate drops to 48-50. I've had ECG, echo tests, and more about 6 months and a year ago, and they were all normal, but they did mention sinus arrhythmia with sinus bradycardia. I've also dealt with GERD and vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, but I got treatment for those. I'm just not sure what's going on and why these symptoms are happening now. What should I do?
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms related to your low resting heart rate and other issues. Since your previous tests have come back normal, it is important to address the symptoms you are currently facing. Based on your description, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter iron supplements to address any potential iron deficiency related to your symptoms. Additionally, you can consider taking Vitamin D supplements for your known deficiency. To help with your symptoms of chest discomfort, leg restlessness, and body shaking, you can try using a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine at a low dose. This can help regulate your heart rate and improve blood flow. For your GERD symptoms, you can try using an antacid like Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid and alleviate discomfort. It is important to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and management.
