I've been experiencing some pain in my left armpit and the far left side of my chest, near the armpit, for almost an hour. It's not super sharp, but it's definitely something I've never felt before. It went away after a while, and I feel fine now. Do you think I should be worried about this?

Today I experienced some heat in my chest area, which is unusual for me, and it wasn't during my regular walks or runs either. I've been feeling mild chest pain on and off for the last eight months, but my tests like the echo ECG in April were normal, and my TMT in August came back negative too. I'm pretty active, walking daily and running, and haven't changed my dietno junk or spicy foods. Seeing the cardiologist got me a list of medications like Escitalopram, Gastoflora, and Alprazolam, among others, but I'm curious about this new sensation. Is it something to worry about, or could it be a side effect of the medications?
The heat on the chest area that you are feeling could be due to various reasons, including anxiety or musculoskeletal issues. The medications prescribed to you by the cardiologist are as follows: 1) Escitalopram tablets - 1 tablet in the evening 2) Gastoflora tablet - 1 tablet in the evening 3) Alprazolam tablet - 12 tablet in the morning and 12 tablet in the evening 4) Duloxetine capsule - 1 capsule after breakfast 5) Retizyme capsule - 1 capsule in the morning and 1 capsule in the evening 6) Etoricoxib soft gelatin capsule - 1 capsule in the morning and 1 capsule in the evening 7) Difen Gel ointment These medications suggest that the cardiologist may suspect an underlying anxiety or gastrointestinal issue. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and schedule as advised by the doctor. If you continue to experience chest pain or any concerning symptoms, please follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation.
