I'm scheduled to have an angiogram next week and I'm feeling a bit anxious about it. How long does it usually take to recover fully from this procedure? I'm also worried about any possible side effects or serious risks that might come with it. And after the angiogram, will I need to stay in the hospital for a long time?

I've been drinking a lot of water, like between 42 to 64 ounces a day, and I've noticed I sometimes get short of breath and feel some pressure on my chest. But when I don't drink as much water the next day, those symptoms kind of disappear. Could the amount of water I'm drinking be affecting my breathing and chest pressure?

I've been feeling this needle-like pain in my left chest that started a couple of nights ago while I was asleep and it lasted about 10 minutes. Afterward, I started getting these intermittent pin-pricking pains on both sides of my chest. Now I'm even feeling some discomfort in my back and mild pains in my left shoulder and arms, which sometimes shift to the right side. Im already dealing with a breathing problem and recently noticed some chest tightness. I dont feel tired or dizzy, but I do have a stomach ulcer. I'm really worried this could be some kind of heart attack or angina. What should I do?

I'm 23 and have been dealing with constant chest pain for about a week now. I thought it might just be because of gas, so I tried some home remedies, but the pain hasn't gone away. I'm really starting to get worried. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned?

Persistent chest pain should not be ignored, as it can be a sign of a serious medical condition. In this case, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. You can take Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief, but I recommend seeking medical attention as soon as possible for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
