I've been feeling some pain in the middle of my chest, right at the top, for the last couple of months, and it seems to be getting worse every day. I've also been dealing with catarrh for a few years now. Could these be related, and should I be worried about this chest pain getting worse?

I'm not sure if what I'm feeling is gas, but there's this mild pain in my heart area. Should I be worried about this, or could it just go away on its own?
Mild pain in the heart area could be due to various reasons, including gastrointestinal issues like gas, musculoskeletal problems, or cardiac concerns. Since it's important to rule out any serious conditions, I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. They may perform tests such as an ECG or blood work to rule out heart-related issues and provide further guidance based on their findings. If the pain is related to gas, lifestyle and dietary changes, along with over-the-counter antacids, might help.

Is my EKG normal? Can you manually check the QTc levels because last time the machine got it wrong? Also, I'm confused about what non-specific ST depression means. From what I understand, ST depression is linked to a heart attack or ischemia. I've had ECGs before, but this is the first time I've seen this in the report. Could you help explain this?
Regarding the EKG, I cannot check the QTc levels manually through this platform. Non-specific ST depression on an EKG means that there are changes in the ST segment of the EKG that are not specifically indicative of a heart attack or ischemia. It can be caused by various factors such as electrolyte imbalances, medications, or even normal variation. If you have concerns about the findings on your EKG, it would be best to discuss them with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation.
