I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel. The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?

View allIve been noticing that when I lie down, especially on my side, I can really feel my heartbeat, and it's hard to focus on anything else. What could be causing this? Any advice would be appreciated.
Feeling your heartbeat more prominently when lying down, especially on your side, can be due to a condition called palpitations. This can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and reducing caffeine consumption may also help.

I'm a 23-year-old female, around 130 lbs, and I'm really anxious about health stuff recently, especially after reading about various symptoms. A while back, I had the flu with fever, diarrhea, and a low appetite, and though those symptoms are gone, I still feel weak and lightheaded. It got me worried about an electrolyte imbalance. I took two 150 mg doses of fluconazole for a candida infection right after my flu, and I read that's something that could affect potassium levels. Sometimes, I think I'm having heart palpitations, with my resting pulse varying from 59 to 75. It feels like my heart is either pounding or too weak at times. The lightheadedness often kicks in after I walk a lot or panic. I've been trying to up my potassium intake but can't seem to reach the 4700mg target. Do you think this could lead to a significant imbalance or even a cardiac issue?

I'm having some pain in my left arm and a kind of sensation there too. At the same time, I'm feeling a bit of a light pain in my chest. What could this be? Should I be worried?
Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient.
