I'm experiencing these palpitations alongside some gas. Could this be related to my heart or are the palpitations just caused by the gas? I was wondering if it's necessary to get an ECG. Could you give me some guidance on this?

Palpitations and gas can be caused by various factors, including heart issues and gastrointestinal problems. To address palpitations, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to consider an ECG to assess your heart's electrical activity. For gas relief, you can try over-the-counter medications like Simethicone (Gas-X) to help alleviate symptoms.

View allI've been experiencing some mild chest pain for about a month now. There hasn't been any coughing, fever, or cold symptoms, but the pain is located near my left breast. Occasionally, I also feel pain in my left arm and shoulders. Sometimes I struggle to breathe normally, and it often feels like something's stuck in my throat. What's going on with me?

I've been diagnosed with coronary heart disease and my doctor recommended bypass surgery but I've also heard about EECP and chelation therapy as alternatives. I'm really confused about which option to choose and worried about the costs. One source said EECP costs around 70-80 thousand but a local hospital quoted 2.5 lakh rupees. Can you help me understand the pros and cons of each treatment and why there's such a big difference in the cost?
Bypass surgery is a major decision. EECP is non-invasive and more affordable, but bypass surgery may offer more immediate results. The cost difference is often due to location, equipment, and the type of care provided at the hospital.

I'm having this mild pain on the left side of my chest and left arm. It's a bit strange because my blood pressure and pulse rate are normal. It doesn't bother me when I'm walking, running, or even taking the stairs. The pain is mainly around the top left part of my chest and comes and goes, but is kind of always there. Should I be worried about this?
