I'm really concerned about my mom's health. Her ESR levels are incredibly high, sitting at 155, and she's been struggling with rheumatoid arthritis. Could you help me understand whether this is something we should be worried about and what potential impacts this might have on her condition?

View allI'm a bit worried about my 66-year-old mom. She's diabetic and has a resting heart rate of 80 BPM with an SPO2 level around 9798. But yesterday, after climbing two floors, her heart rate jumped to 122 BPM and her SPO2 hit 99. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I'm feeling this heaviness on the left side of my chest and it's getting hard to breathe deeply. I've also got pain shooting down my left arm and into the upper left part of my back. I've already gone through tests like ECG, echo, and TMT, plus a chest X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm really not sure what my next steps should be. Any idea what could be going on?
Despite normal ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-ray reports, your persistent symptoms of heaviness in the left side of the chest, shortness of breath, left arm pain, and upper back pain warrant further evaluation; consider consulting a cardiologist

I stopped smoking about a month and a half ago, and ever since, I've been getting this weird feeling on the left side of my chest sometimes. There's occasionally some pain that only lasts for a few minutes. Plus, I notice I sometimes get short of breath and start sweating. I've found that burping can sometimes relieve the discomfort, but not always. Once in a while, the pain starts in my back between my shoulder blades or in my lower back. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about? What might be going on here?
