I'm experiencing some pinching and squeezing chest pains, and my heart rate seems to jump between 80 and 120 with some palpitations. The pain tends to be worse in the afternoons after I eat, but it also happens in the evenings, especially when I start thinking about stuff, even small thoughts make my heart rate go up but it does slow down after I get myself to calm down. I've done multiple ECGs, TM tests, and echoes, and they've all been normal so far. There is sinus tachycardia, though. I don't smoke or drink, but I'm dealing with a lot of anxiety and worry. My cholesterol is at 240 and my blood pressure is around 13090. My sugar levels are almost normal and I weigh 70 kgs with a 5.5 height. I follow a light veg South rice diet and don't eat meat. What's causing this chest pain and geyser-like hot sensation? It's really unsettling and causing me some social anxiety. I'm not married and I don't really have much of a social life. What should I do?

View allI'm feeling this sharp pain in the upper left part of my chest every time I cough or yawn, and it's got me worried. Sometimes, it also feels really tight in that area, even when I'm not doing anything. Can you tell me what's going on?
The sharp pain and tightness in your chest could be due to muscle strain, especially around the rib cage, or it could be related to heartburn or even anxiety. However, if the pain persists or worsens, its important to consult a doctor to rule out any serious issues like heart conditions or lung problems.

Is a mild concentric LVH and Grade I diastolic dysfunction something serious for a 68-year-old woman who's had a high sugar level of 250 and has been taking medication for diabetes for 6 years and heart issues for 4 years? What steps should we be taking? Is there a concern about ischemic heart disease with these symptoms, especially given the normal echo report?
Neck Pain and Burping Symptoms _Possible Causes_ 1. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Burping and neck discomfort may be related to GERD, where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. 2. _Dysphagia_: Difficulty swallowing or a sensation of blockage in the neck could be causing your symptoms. 3. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Neck pain might be related to muscle strain or poor posture. _Recommendations_ 1. _Antacids or acid reducers_: Over-the-counter medications like antacids (Tums, Rolaids) or acid reducers (Zantac, Pepcid) may help alleviate GERD symptoms. 2. _Dietary changes_: Avoid trigger foods (spicy, fatty, or acidic), eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down after eating. 3. _Physical therapy_: Gentle neck stretches and exercises may help relieve musculoskeletal tension. 4. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a gastroenterologist to rule out underlying conditions. _When to Seek Immediate Attention_ 1. _Severe symptoms_: If you experience severe neck pain, difficulty swallowing, or vomiting blood, seek immediate medical attention.

I've been told I have a skipped heartbeat and trivial Mitral regurgitation, and the echo and Holter tests confirmed the Mitral regurgitation. I'm really curious about what this means for my daily life. How often can I live normally with this condition? Also, how long does it usually take for it to progress from trivial to mild or moderate?
Cardiologist opinion.
