I'm really worried because my husband keeps having this slight pain and tightness in the center of his chest. It's especially bothersome when he coughs or takes a deep breath during these episodes. It's not happening all the time, but I'm not sure if we should investigate heart problems or something else. There aren't any other symptoms to go off of. What should we do?

I've been having this small tingly sensation in my upper chest since November 2016. It kinda feels like there's a blockage or something. Should I be worried about this, and what might it be?
The symptoms you are describing could be related to acid reflux or a nerve issue. To help with the tingling sensation, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can take Gabapentin (brand name Neurontin) 300mg three times a day to help with nerve-related symptoms. However, it is important to consult with a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

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.
