I'm dealing with heartburn, chest pain, nausea, and shortness of breath, and I've been like this for the last six months. Ive had a 2D echo, ECG, vitamin D check, endoscopy, and blood tests, but everything seems to be normal. What could be causing these symptoms if all my tests are showing up fine? I'm really concerned and would love to understand what's going on.

I'm worried about how I feel when taking antibiotics. Last year, after my accident, I was given a lot of antibiotics, and ever since then, I have this strong urge to vomit whenever I take them. Why is this happening, and what can I do about it?
