I'm really concerned about some pain I've been experiencing. It started about four months ago with chest pain and pain in my left arm. I went to a doctor who said it might be gastric issues, but I was worried so I saw a cardiologist. They did a chest X-ray, a TMT, and an echo 2D, and everything came back negative. My relative, who's a doctor, suggested it might be muscle pain or cervical spondylosis, but I still have this persistent pain in my left arm along with a burning sensation. I've read about anxiety causing these kinds of symptoms, but the pain is also in my neck, jaw, left arm, shoulder, and chest. I'm really hoping for some clarification on what might be going on. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do next?

I'm noticing that my heart starts racing whenever I eat, drink water, or even when I pass urine. It almost feels like I'm anxious all the time. I also have issues with gas and cervical spondylitis. Could these conditions be related to my increased heart rate?

It is possible that your gas problem and cervical spondylitis may be contributing to your increased heart rate. Gas problems can sometimes lead to bloating and discomfort, which can stimulate the vagus nerve and result in changes in heart rate. Additionally, cervical spondylitis, which affects the neck and spine, can sometimes cause compression of nerves that regulate heart rate, potentially leading to an increase in heart rate. To help with your symptoms, you can try taking medications like Pantoprazole for gas problems and Gabapentin for cervical spondylitis. Additionally, you can consider using medications like Propranolol to help control your heart rate during episodes of increased anxiety or discomfort. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm really concerned about my dad's health. Last year in July, he had angioplasty and the doctor put two stents in one artery and one stent in another. He's been following the doctor's diet and taking his meds regularly. Is there still a chance his blood vessels might get blocked again?

It is important for your father to continue taking his prescribed medications and follow the doctor's diet chart to reduce the risk of blockage in the blood vessels. To further prevent blockage, the following medications are commonly prescribed after angioplasty: 1. Antiplatelet agents such as Aspirin or Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots - Dosage as per doctor's prescription 2. Statins such as Atorvastatin or Rosuvastatin to lower cholesterol levels - Dosage as per doctor's prescription 3. ACE inhibitors or ARBs to control blood pressure and improve heart function - Dosage as per doctor's prescription 4. Beta-blockers to reduce the heart's workload and lower blood pressure - Dosage as per doctor's prescription Regular follow-up appointments with the cardiologist are also important to monitor your father's heart health and make any necessary adjustments to his treatment plan.
