I'm 30 and lately, I've been experiencing this weird sinking feeling in my chest, almost like a jump-sinking sensation. It just pops up randomly, any time of the day, and can last for a while. It's got me feeling uneasy, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can anyone help me figure this out?

I'm getting kind of worried because I've been feeling pretty uncomfortable after eating for a few days now. There's this mild chest pain and a tight feeling around my chest area. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned or is it something normal that might go away on its own?

An ecg is advised.GERD is the probable diagnosis, avoid spicy foods,alcohol etc..Also take pan d orally before food whenever symptoms apper.

I recently had an ECG done at the hospital, and the report mentioned "Normal sinus rhythm" and something about "minimal voltage criteria for LVH" and it being a "borderline ECG." I'm a bit confused and concerned about what this all means. Could you explain if there's anything I should be worried about with these results?

it is normal

I'm really worried about this ongoing lightheadedness I've been dealing with for the past 8 months. It's like I'm under the influence of something, almost like alcohol, but I'm not. I've had these scary episodes where my chest hurts and my blood pressure shoots up to 150100. The ER told me it was a panic attack, and it's happened twice now. I've undergone so many testsHolter Monitor, ECG, EKG, chest and heart CT scans, even a brain MRI and countless blood tests. Everything comes back normal, including checks for anemia and thyroid issues. They did find H. Pylori, and I finished a 14-day antibiotic course for that, but otherwise, doctors say I'm fine. Yet, I can't shake these feelings and symptoms. I'm 30, 6 feet tall, and weigh 90 kg, with blood pressure often around 13590. I've even had ECGs during the pain episodes. Can you help me figure out what might be going on here?

It sounds like you have been through a thorough evaluation for your symptoms. Since all your reports have come back normal and your doctors have ruled out various possible causes, including panic attacks, it's important to consider other factors that may be contributing to your lightheadedness and other symptoms. One possible cause could be inner ear problems leading to vertigo-like symptoms. I recommend trying a medication called Meclizine (brand name Antivert) at a dose of 25-100 mg per day to help with your lightheadedness. Additionally, you may benefit from vestibular rehabilitation therapy to address any inner ear issues. It's also important to stay well-hydrated, maintain a healthy diet, and practice stress-reducing activities such as yoga or meditation. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it may be helpful to see an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist for further evaluation and management.
