I stopped smoking about a month and a half ago, and ever since, I've been getting this weird feeling on the left side of my chest sometimes. There's occasionally some pain that only lasts for a few minutes. Plus, I notice I sometimes get short of breath and start sweating. I've found that burping can sometimes relieve the discomfort, but not always. Once in a while, the pain starts in my back between my shoulder blades or in my lower back. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about? What might be going on here?

I'm really worried about some readings I found on my report. It says HR82 BPM, QRS DUR99 ms, QTc interval is 411 ms, and PR interval is 122 ms. My resting heart rate is listed as 724 ms QT, and something called QTc 85 QT RR 48 PQRST at zero degrees. I don't quite understand what all these mean. Should I be concerned about my heart health with these numbers?
