I've been having a hard time breathing when I'm lying down on either side. Could this be related to my lungs or heart? I'm feeling a bit worried. Can you give me some insight into what might be going on?

Hey, I've been feeling really worried lately. So, I'm a 29-year-old guy and back in December, I had this scary episode where my heart was racing like crazy and I had chest pain. I rushed to the hospital, they did an ECG, and said everything looked fine. I even saw another senior cardiologist who also checked me out and didn't find anything alarming. They gave me some meds like clonozopam and betacap tr 40, and things were okay for a while. But the past few weeks, I've been getting this weird fluttering or vibrating feeling in my heart, especially in the evenings. I don't have any chest pain or other symptoms now, but I'm really stressed about it. With the lockdown, I'm having trouble seeing a doctor again. Do you think this could just be anxiety, or is there something else going on? What should I do? I've attached the ECG from that time, if that helps.

That could be due to anxiety,if your previos medicines are avaialable with you you can take those medicines and visit psychiatrist for appropriate management

I'm currently taking Olmezest 40, but it's getting really pricey. Should I switch to Olmetime 40 instead? What's the difference between the two?

Both are same in the composition. ..economical and cost effective depends on affordability..

I'm really worried because I've been experiencing chest pain whenever I'm angry or stressed. It feels like cramps, and it's as if my heart is full of pain. Along with that, I get dizzy and sometimes see things doubled. Even after I calm down, the pain can last for two to four hours. I'm not sure what's causing this, and honestly, it's pretty scary. Chest pain isn't something I want to ignore. Could you help me figure out why this is happening when I'm angry, stressed, or feeling down?

it might be due to anxiety, try consulting your bear by psychiatrist
