I've been experiencing this sharp pain on the left side of my chest that only lasts a few seconds, but it's got me worried. On top of that, my chest feels heavy, and my eyes just feel really tired. Should I be concerned about this? What could it mean?

I've been dealing with constant pain on the left side of my chest for about 8 months now. My ECG came back normal, so I'm pretty confused about what's going on. Sometimes taking something for acidity helps a bit, but other times it doesn't do much. Along with that, I've been feeling pretty nauseous and have had some trouble breathing. Does this sound like something serious, or should I keep trying different medications?

ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the pt.

I'm trying to understand more about concentric lvh as I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last 5 years. I've been taking Telma 40 mg daily, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you please explain what treatments are recommended for lvh? I'm really worried about this condition and just want to make sure I'm doing everything I can to manage it properly.

I'm really worried because my heart rate is usually at 100 or above. I check it by counting the pulse on my neck, and it comes out to be something like 24 to 27 pulses in 15 seconds, which is more than 100 when I calculate it for a minute. I have a history of panic attacks that started back in 2015 with a very fast heartbeat, and I was told it might have been due to acid reflux. It happened again in 2019. I'm really scared of traveling, especially late at night during long journeys. I get these terrible thoughts about what if I have an attack and theres no one around to help, like if the train is passing through a jungle. These thoughts just make my heart race even more, and I end up feeling extremely scared. Can you please help me understand what's going on and how I can handle this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety, especially given your history of panic attacks. The rapid heartbeat you are feeling could be related to anxiety and stress. To help manage your symptoms, I recommend trying relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga. In terms of medication, you can consider taking a beta-blocker such as Propranolol. Start with a low dose of 10mg once daily, and you can increase it as needed under medical supervision. Beta-blockers can help reduce heart rate and physical symptoms of anxiety. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.
