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?

I've been feeling a heaviness in my chest when I'm trying to sleep, and it's making it hard for me to breathe. It's strange because I'm not coughing or anything. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

I'm feeling a bit concerned. I had an angioplasty with a stent placed and went for a follow-up after 7 days like the doctor suggested. But now I'm feeling this weird pricking sensation and some discomfort. Is that kind of pricking feeling normal after you get a stent placed?

yes .
