I've been having this chest pain and heaviness, and sometimes it feels like I'm short of breath, especially when I'm walking. I got an ECG and a chest x-ray, and they came back normal. I went to a nearby clinic just a couple of days ago for the same issue. I can't help but think I might have angina, but no doctor has confirmed this. They usually just check my pulse rate and listen to my heartbeat with a stethoscope and tell me everything's fine. Should I be worried about this, or can I trust the tests and what the doctors have said so far? Would love some guidance!

Since your symptoms are persisting, it's important to consider other causes of chest pain apart from heart-related issues. One common condition that can cause similar symptoms is acid reflux or GERD. You can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for 2 weeks to see if your symptoms improve. Additionally, you can also take Ranitidine (brand name Zantac) 150mg twice daily for immediate relief of chest pain. However, if your symptoms persist or worsen, it's advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm feeling a bit worried and would like some advice. I tested positive on December 19th and my CT scan shows corads 4. I've been diabetic for 10 years and had a heart blockage about 5 months ago. Recently, my D-dimer level is at 0.34, and my sugar levels are high, with an HBA1c of 8.9 and an average blood glucose of 208. Right now, I don't have any symptoms, but given my medical history, do you think I should consider hospitalization?
