I've been experiencing some mild chest pain and discomfort when I breathe. It's a bit concerning, and I'm wondering what could be causing this. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that could resolve on its own? Could it be related to stress, or should I get it checked out immediately?

I'm feeling a bit concerned. I had an angioplasty with a stent placed and went for a follow-up after 7 days like the doctor suggested. But now I'm feeling this weird pricking sensation and some discomfort. Is that kind of pricking feeling normal after you get a stent placed?

yes .

I'm 23 and had some tests done recently where my ECG and ECHO came back normal, but my QRS duration was 98ms. I'm kind of worried about whether this might have any implications for my health in the future. Can you explain if this is something I should be concerned about?

QRS duration of 98ms is considered to be within normal limits for adults. It is unlikely to cause any issues in the future. No specific treatment is needed for this. Just continue to follow up with your healthcare provider for routine check-ups.
