I'm dealing with some slight chest pain and noticed it happens when I'm not breathing fully, like my breath feels kind of incomplete. It's been going on for the past month and sometimes can last the whole day. I'm worried and not sure what's going on. Could you give me some advice on this?

View allI've been dealing with a heavy feeling in my chest and some chest pain for the past four months. The pain often starts on the center left side but sometimes shifts to the center right. Ive tried Gelusil a few times, but it hasnt really helped. I do pranayam and take a short walk every day. What could be causing this? What do you think I should do, and are there any specific tests you recommend?

I've been having some concerns lately, so a few weeks ago, I had breathlessness and noticed my blood pressure was up at 140106. Went to get an ECG and Echo done the ECG showed some mild variations, and the Echo showed mild LVH. That same day, my BP was 150100, so they kept me under observation for about 4 hours and sent me home with a prescription for a 5mg BP medicine for a month. But here's the thingI didn't take the meds because I'm worried about getting dependent on them. I've been checking my BP regularly and it's mostly between 12887 and 13090, though I did have one reading of 13890. Do you think it's okay for me to keep skipping the medicine and just try focusing on lifestyle changes? Am I making a mistake here by not taking it? Would love some advice on this.
Based on your medical history of having mild variations in ECG, mild LVH on Echo report, and elevated blood pressure readings, it is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding medication. Skipping blood pressure medication can increase the risk of complications such as heart disease, stroke, or kidney problems, especially since your blood pressure was previously elevated at 150100. I recommend that you do not skip your medication and continue taking it as prescribed by your doctor. In addition to medication, incorporating lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet low in sodium, regular exercise, stress management, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can also help in managing your blood pressure. If you have concerns about forming a habit of taking medication, you can discuss this with your doctor to address any fears or doubts you may have. It is important to prioritize your health and follow the treatment plan recommended by your healthcare provider.

I'm 20 and recently had two echocardiograms, one showing RVSP at 37 mmHg and the other at 29 mmHg. Both mentioned normal pulmonary artery and veins, and there's MVP with mild eccentric regurgitation. I'm worried about the possibility of pulmonary artery hypertension and whether it could be idiopathic. Could you help me understand what's going on?
