I've been having this regular pain on the left side of my chest for about a week now, and after getting some cardiac tests done, they mentioned things like Sinus bradycardia with Sinus arrhythmia and Hyperacute T waves. I'm having some breathlessness too, but my heartbeat is at 58. The TIPI probability of ACI came out as 9.

I'm feeling worried because I've been experiencing chest discomfort and shortness of breath for the past three months. I recently got my blood report back, and it shows my lymphocytes level is at 55. Should I be concerned about that? Also, my ECG, echocardiogram, PFT, and chest X-rays came back normal. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Based on your symptoms and normal test results, a high percentage of lymphocytes in the blood may indicate an underlying infection or inflammation. However, since your other tests are normal, it is less likely to be related to a serious heart or lung condition. To address the chest discomfort and shortness of breath, you can try taking over-the-counter antacids for possible acid reflux or GERD symptoms. Additionally, you can take a short course of antibiotics like Azithromycin 500mg once daily for 3 days to cover any potential infection. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
