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?

I read that if you often have a difference of 10 to 15 mm Hg in your systolic blood pressure between your arms, it might indicate issues like vascular disease or blocked arteries. Is this actually true? Should I be worried about peripheral artery disease if my readings are consistently different?

Yes, it is true that a large difference in blood pressure measurement between your arms may indicate a health problem such as blocked arteries in your arms (peripheral artery disease).

I'm really worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing. Whenever I get tired, I start having short breaths and feel this chest pain. I can walk for a bit if I go slowly, but after a few minutes, I start running out of breath and the chest pain comes back. Does this sound like something serious? What should I do about it?

I've been experiencing this really strong heartbeat almost every day, and it's not like palpitations. It happens for no reason, even when I'm just sitting or trying to relax. It's so intense that, for a second, it feels like my heart has stopped. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could there be a reason for this?
