I'm experiencing a really weird feeling in my chest that sometimes eases up when I take a deep breath. My heart rate speeds up occasionally too. I did a spirometry test, which showed normal results with my fev1fvc at 98.8, and my oximeter reading is at 98. I quit smoking about 2 months ago, but I still have some burping issues from gastric problems. It's got me worried, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you help me figure out what might be happening?

View allI'm just a bit worried about my dad. He's 73 and back in November, he was getting these palpitations which led to an angiogram. They found some mild lesions and myocardial bridging, nothing major though. Before all this, he was on a 10 mg dose of Aztor. In December, he had a left hepatectomy because of a cyst, but that's all sorted now. So, in January, the doctor switched things up and put him on Ecosprin 7520 and Prolimet 12.5, and he's been on those for about three months. The thing is, our doctor isn't available right now and my dads next checkup isn't until April. I'm just wondering if it's okay for him to keep taking this medication for another two months or should we be doing something different?
Yes, the same medications can be continued for another two months. Aztor 10 mg can be continued for his cholesterol management. Ecosprin 7520 is important for antiplatelet effects to prevent blood clots, and Prolimet 12.5 is likely prescribed for blood pressure control. It is important to continue these medications as prescribed until his next checkup in April.

I've been dealing with a higher heart rate for about 45 days now, and it's really starting to make me feel nervous and cause chest pain. This actually happened to me about two years ago as well, and back then I did all the tests like ECG and 2D ECHO but they didn't find anything wrong. Now that it's happening again, I'm really concerned. Can you suggest what might be causing this or how I should treat it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Propranolol. The usual dosage for Propranolol in such cases is 10-40mg, taken 2-3 times a day as needed to control heart rate and chest pain. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I'm experiencing some worrying symptoms like left side chest pain and vomiting. I'm not feeling hungry and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast all of a sudden. It's even affecting my sleep. I've already had an echo and TMT done, and they didn't show anything wrong, but I'm still concerned. Could this be something serious? What should I do next?
Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient.
