I'm feeling a lot of pain in the upper muscles of my chest, even though I can breathe normally. It feels like there's pressure on my chest. I recently had a chest X-ray, and the doctor said it was normal. I've got acidity, and I'm not sure if that's what's causing this much pain. It sometimes feels like I might fall over, but my blood pressure and sugar levels are normal. I'm really anxious about my health. I've already taken all the reports; CT scan for my brain was normal, and liver, kidney, and thyroid are also fine. I even checked cardio and took a TMT which came back negative. But both the right and left chest muscles are still hurting. What should I do?

View allI've been taking propranolol 10mg for my anxiety whenever needed, and it's been a big help. But lately, I've had to take it every day for about a week, and now I'm experiencing this sharp, stabbing pain in the center of my chest that goes to my back. I'm not sure if it's just anxiety or something more serious. I'm a healthy 26-year-old guy, and my resting heart rate is between 52 and 56 bpm, but sometimes it drops into the 40s. I do have a history of gastroparesis. Do you think this chest pain could be an issue related to the medication or something else going on?
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to the propranolol medication. Chest pain is a known side effect of propranolol, especially in individuals with a history of heart conditions. Given your symptoms and medical history, it is important to consult your healthcare provider as soon as possible to evaluate the chest pain and determine the appropriate course of action. In the meantime, it is advisable to avoid sudden discontinuation of propranolol as it can lead to withdrawal symptoms. If the chest pain is severe or persistent, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm having this ache in my left hand and sometimes it goes numb, it's been going on for about 10 months now. I had an ECG, TMT, and an echo done back in September last year, and everything came back normal. But I can't shake off this anxiety that there might be something wrong with my heart. On top of that, I've been having sharp chest pains every day since last year. What could be causing this and what should I do about it? Please help.
Based on your symptoms and previous tests, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, since your previous cardiac tests were normal, your symptoms could be related to musculoskeletal issues or nerve compression. I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the chest pain. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like methocarbamol to help with the ache and numbness in your left hand. It is also advisable to consult with a neurologist for further evaluation and management of the numbness in your hand.
