I'm a bit worried after seeing my chest x-ray results. It mentions mild bilateral perihilar and basal congestion along with borderline cardiomegaly. Can you explain what this means, and how I might be able to treat it or manage the symptoms?

View allI'm a 30-year-old male and last night, I suddenly experienced a spike in my blood pressure and heart rate. I was feeling restless for about 2-3 hours, and my blood pressure even hit 16090 with my heart rate jumping between 95-120 BPM. Even now, my heart rate feels a bit on the higher side, around 90-100 BPM. I'm using a mobile app to monitor these, so I'm not entirely sure how accurate they are. Also, I've got a mild issue with kidney stones, specifically oxylate stones, and they give me some abdominal pain even though nothing showed up on the ultrasound. Should I be worried about these symptoms, or do you think they're related to my kidney stones?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or a panic attack, which can cause a sudden increase in blood pressure and heart rate. However, given your history of kidney stones and abdominal pain, it's important to monitor your symptoms closely. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (50mg) to help lower your heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in reducing anxiety levels. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan, especially considering your history of kidney stones. Regular monitoring and follow-up are essential in your case.

I'm a little concerned about my ECG results. I did one using a portable ECG device and it says "Sinus Rhythm," but Im not sure if that means everything is actually okay. Is this considered clinically normal or should I be worried about something else?
Sinus Rhythm on ECG indicates normal heart rhythm. However, to determine if the ECG is clinically normal, other factors need to be considered such as symptoms, medical history, and physical examination. If there are no other concerning findings, the ECG can be considered normal.

I'm feeling a pinching pain on the left side of my chest that's been bugging me for the past week. I originally thought it might just be gas and tried having soda with lime several times, which only relieved it briefly. Could there be something else going on, or is it really just related to gas? Could you help me figure this out?
