I've been experiencing a lot of stiffness in my chest lately, and sometimes there's this pain that pops up on the left side, right side, or even in the center of my chest. I've had a chest CT, blood tests, and even an abdominal CT and ultrasound, and everything seems to come back normal. It's just really confusing and a bit worrying. What could be causing this if all the tests are normal?

My normal heart rate, as shown on my oximeter, is always over 100, usually around 102 or 104 beats per minute. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is it considered normal?

I've been having a tough time over the past couple of years with losing my job and family issues. Lately, I've been feeling this crushing sensation in my chest at times. A few years back, I was told I have mild mitral valve prolapse, but I never started any medication for it. I feel mild pain sometimes, but it never lasts more than two weeks. I'm trying to figure out if this chest pain is because of stress or my MVP. Ive also been feeling really down and anxious, especially at night, often ending up in tears. Some people close to me think I might have some psychological issues. What should I do?
It sounds like you are going through a lot of stress and emotional turmoil. The chest pain you are experiencing could be related to both stress and your history of mild mitral valve prolapse. It is important to address both the physical and emotional aspects of your health. For the chest pain related to mitral valve prolapse, you should consult with a doctor to determine if any medication or treatment is necessary. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen to help with the pain. To address the stress and emotional issues you are facing, it would be beneficial to seek therapy or counseling to help you cope with your feelings of depression and anxiety. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga can also be helpful in managing stress. In terms of medication, you can consider taking an antidepressant such as sertraline at a low dose to help with your depressive symptoms. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe for you. Remember to prioritize self-care, reach out to supportive friends and family members, and consider joining a support group to connect with others who may be going through similar experiences. Take care of yourself and know that it is okay to seek help when needed.
