I'm really worried about a situation I'm facing right now. Lately, I've noticed that he can't even make it to 1015 steps without getting super out of breath. But oddly enough, he's able to sleep comfortably. Should I be concerned about this imbalance, and is there something specific I should be looking into or doing for him?

I've been dealing with chest pain for about 8 months now, and even though I got checked out, they didnt find any issues with my heart. I tried taking Myospaz and Pan 40 for a week, but it didnt really help. The pain just keeps coming back regularly. What should I do next?

Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient. Syrup sucralfate 10 ml orally ,thrice daily for 14 days and tab pan d ,before food for 14 days is also advised to the pt.

I'm a 28-year-old guy dealing with costochondritis and whenever I visit the doctor, my heart rate skyrockets and my blood pressure goes up, but when I'm back home, everything seems to settle down to normal. I'm really anxious about this. Could you help me understand what's happening and any suggestions on what I could do?

Your symptoms suggest white coat hypertension and anxiety, common in people with costochondritis; to manage anxiety, consider relaxation techniques like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, and for white coat hypertension, ask your doctor about ambulatory blood pressure monitoring or home blood pressure tracking to get accurate readings and alleviate anxiety-related spikes.
