I've been dealing with some health issues for a while now and I'm getting a bit concerned. It's been nearly 80 days since I first had a fever and lost my sense of smell, although those symptoms have improved. My CBC, ESR, and CRP tests came back normal, but about two weeks after my initial symptoms started, I began experiencing chest pain. The chest pain has mostly gone away, but every now and then it returns, and I still feel this tightness and heaviness in my chest. I haven't had any shortness of breath, and my SpO2 levels are between 96 and 98 after a six-minute walk. An ECG has been done, and the cardiologist said it's normal, diagnosing the pain as muscular. I just had a chest X-ray today, and I'm curious if it's normal. Also, my left nostril sometimes gets blocked, making it difficult to breathe comfortably. Can you please help me understand when I might start feeling like myself again?

I'm a 22-year-old guy and I've been having this mild chest pain on the left side for about 34 months now. It's not constant but happens occasionally, and it feels like my chest is getting a bit heavier. I notice my heartbeat sometimes during these episodes, and there's this weird sensation like something's there in my chest. The pain usually spreads to my left hand and shoulder, and my hand feels kind of numb for about 20 seconds before it all goes away. I went through an ECG, which showed an abnormal heartbeat, but the 2D Echo came out normal. I had COVID-19 around 56 months ago and took the prescribed medication. This chest pain started only after I recovered. Could it be related to my past COVID infection, or is there something else going on?

I'm often finding my pulse rate hitting around 110 per minute even when I'm just resting. My doctor prescribed Betacap TR 40 and mentioned it might just be anxiety. Do you have any advice on whether there are other medications I should consider or any specific tests I should look into to better understand what's going on?
Your doctor has prescribed you Betacap TR 40 for your high pulse rate, which is likely due to anxiety. This medication contains Propranolol and helps in reducing heart rate and controlling symptoms of anxiety. You can take it as prescribed by your doctor. In addition to medication, you may also consider some lifestyle modifications to help manage anxiety and lower your pulse rate. This can include regular exercise, stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation, and ensuring you get an adequate amount of sleep. As for tests, your doctor may recommend some blood tests to rule out any underlying medical conditions that could be contributing to your high pulse rate. These tests may include thyroid function tests, electrolyte levels, and cardiac enzymes. It's important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
