I'm experiencing shortness of breath at night when I'm trying to sleep, and it sometimes happens while I'm eating too. Could this be related to fluid in my lungs? What could be causing this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes it causes difficulty in breathing. ADvised chest x-ray and plueral fluid for ADA and culture and sensitivity.

View allI'm feeling really uneasy because for the past 4 months I've been having these weird jerks and palpitations in my chest that last just a couple of seconds. They come and go without any warning. It's like my heart just stops for a moment, and it's really awkward when it happens, although there's no chest pain. I exercise regularly and all my tests like ECG, 2D ECHO, HOLTER ECG, BP, FBS, and Thyroid profile came back normal. But these feelings haven't stopped and I'm scared. Could these jerks be signs of something serious like a cardiac arrest or any other heart issues? What's causing them and the palpitations? I've even felt some pain around the right side of my chest and I'm worried does this relate to cardiac problems, or is it only the left side that's dangerous?
Since all the reports are normal ,advised a psychiatric opinion for diagnosis of anxiety and other conditions..

I've been smoking for the last 5 years, and lately, Im noticing this weird pain in the center of my chest. It doesn't bother me when I'm just sitting or standing still, but if I stretch my arms or put any pressure on my chest, I get this sharp pinching feeling inside. Even just warming up before a workout or sleeping in one position can trigger it. There's no fatigue, coughing up blood, or anxiety. Do you think it's something serious, or should I just not worry about it too much?
Ecg and chest x-ray pa view is advised to the patient.

I'm trying to figure out what's going on with my 17-year-old son's blood pressure. It's at 140 over 80, and he's currently taking Vinicor D 25 and Solopose Plus. Could you help me understand what these numbers really mean? Do you think its necessary for us to schedule an appointment with a doctor? I'm a bit concerned about his health.
