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?

I'm experiencing some heart palpitations and my pulse rate is around 90. I recently did an ECG, 2D ECO, and blood tests including the complete blood count, but everything came back normal. I'm just trying to figure out what could be causing these palpitations. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
The normal test results indicate that there may not be a serious underlying issue causing your heart palpitations. However, there are several potential reasons for experiencing heart palpitations despite normal test results. Some common causes include anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, dehydration, anemia, thyroid disorders, or certain medications. In your case, since the tests have already been done and are normal, I would recommend trying to manage stress levels, reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, and ensuring a balanced diet. If palpitations persist or worsen, a medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) can be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.

I've been taking metoprolol 50 mg once a day for the past 3 years, but I'm experiencing some side effects like weight gain, gas, indigestion, abdominal swelling, and a puffy face. Are there any alternative beta blockers I can consider, especially since I have mitral stenosis with a measurement of 1.6?
Considering your side effects with metoprolol, you can discuss with your doctor about switching to a different beta blocker such as Nebivolol (5 mg once daily) or Carvedilol (6.25 mg twice daily). These medications may have a different side effect profile and could be better tolerated in your case. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
