I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having chest pain for a while and thought it might be due to gastric issues, but yesterday it got really bad and lasted more than half an hour. Now she's noticing that when she turns her head to the right, the pain in her chest gets worse. Since yesterday, she's also been feeling some uneasiness in her chest. What could be going on? Should we be worried about something serious?

View allI've been taking Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg every day, but I've started having a lot of congestion and trouble with my breathing. I decided to stop them, and now the side effects are gone. Between these two medications, which one could be causing these issues?
Out of Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg, the medication more likely to cause congestion and breathing issues is Nebicard 2.5 mg. Nebicard is a brand name for Nebivolol, which is a beta-blocker commonly associated with side effects such as bronchospasm and worsening of respiratory conditions in some individuals. It is good that you have stopped the medications and the side effects have resolved.

I'm really worried because I had Covid back in November 2020 and even though I got better with home quarantine, I've been having these palpitations. I was on Prolomet XL 12.5 for three months, but it was stopped and I don't have any other health issues. My weight is 85 kg and I'm 5 ft 7 in. Lately, I find myself googling symptoms a lot and after Covid, a few palpitations really made me anxious, and I think I've developed this fear of heart issues. Between December and April, I had my ECG and 2D ECHO done twice and a 24-hour Holter monitoring, all of which came back normal. But now, for the past couple of days, I've been experiencing a little indigestion. Today, after lunch, I felt a mild pain around my heart, though it disappeared after a few seconds. Could this just be my anxiety, or should I get my heart checked out more thoroughly? Your advice would mean a lot.
Based on your history of palpitations post-Covid and your current symptoms of indigestion and mild pain in the heart area, along with normal ECG, 2D ECHO, and 24-hour Holter monitoring results, it is more likely that your symptoms are related to anxiety rather than a cardiac issue. To address your symptoms of anxiety and cardiophobia, I recommend continuing with lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, stress management techniques, and maintaining a healthy diet. Additionally, you can consider therapy or counseling to help manage your anxiety. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you can discuss with your healthcare provider about starting a medication such as Escitalopram 10mg once daily to help with anxiety symptoms. However, it is important to continue monitoring your symptoms and follow up with your doctor regularly.

I'm a 45-year-old guy and lately, I've been feeling these weird, increased palpitations and some breathlessness. A buddy of mine had these same symptoms and it turned out to be mitral valve prolapse. Can you tell me what symptoms come with mitral valve prolapse? I'm trying to figure out if that's what I might be dealing with.
Increased palpitations and breathlessness can be symptoms of mitral valve prolapse. Other symptoms may include fatigue, dizziness, chest pain, and a feeling of fluttering in the chest. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
