I've been experiencing some pain in my left chest for the past few days, and sometimes it even shifts to the right chest at the bottom. Also, I've noticed my digestion isn't great lately. I'm feeling a bit concerned about these symptoms. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've been noticing something strange with my stomach lately. It moves up and down kind of like a heartbeat but not the usual rhythm you get from breathing. After I eat, it feels like it's more intense, almost like some veins are gathering and feel heavy. This movement continues all day, usually at a normal pace. At first, I thought it was my actual heartbeat, but even when my pulse is 72 bpm, the movement doesn't stop. I looked it up online, and it mentioned something about an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Could that be what I'm experiencing?

A CT abdomen is advised ,follow up with the reports...

I've been noticing that whenever I eat, it feels like the food isn't going down the right way and ends up in my windpipe. It's pretty uncomfortable, and I often get a burning feeling afterwards. I'm really concerned this might turn into aspiration pneumonia. What can I do to handle this? Would love some advice.

That could be GERD vist Gastroenterologist for evaluation and appropriate management.

I've noticed that for the past few months, my stool has been really dark, like black or brown, and kind of sticky. There's no pain or anything, but it just doesn't seem normal to me. Should I be concerned and what might be causing it?

Dark black or brown sticky stool can be a sign of gastrointestinal bleeding. I recommend you to take **Pantoprazole** to reduce stomach acid and **Sucralfate** to help protect the lining of the stomach and intestines. These medications can help in case there is any ulceration or irritation in the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, it is important to follow up with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.
