I've been experiencing some unusual symptoms and I'm getting a bit worried. A few days ago, I had trouble breathing, and then I started feeling pain in my ribs that moved towards my left chest. It happened again recently, and I'm concerned it might be related to a heart issue. Could you please advise me on what this could be or suggest any treatment?

View allI've been having this pain on the left side of my chest for the past 8 months, since September. I've already done ECG, Echo, TMT, and various blood tests but everything came back normal. The pain comes and goes, but in the last few days, it's been bothering me again. On top of that, I'm experiencing body pain too. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?
It sounds like you have been experiencing left side chest pain for quite some time, despite normal results from various tests. Since the pain has started again recently and you are also experiencing body pain, it may be helpful to try a medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg for pain relief. You can take 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for chest and body pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've been feeling like I've missed a beat sometimes, mostly when I'm resting. Could you help me understand what this condition might be and if I should be worried about it?
The sensation of "skipping a beat" is known as palpitations. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or underlying heart conditions. Since you feel it mostly when you are resting, it could be related to an irregular heart rhythm called premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). To manage this condition, you can try to reduce stress and caffeine intake. If the palpitations persist or worsen, you may consider taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm really concerned about my heart health. Although my heartbeat is normal, I've been experiencing light body shakes. My breathing seems fine, but I can't help but worry about potential heart problems. What could be causing this?
