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?

I've been having this regular pain on the left side of my chest for about a week now, and after getting some cardiac tests done, they mentioned things like Sinus bradycardia with Sinus arrhythmia and Hyperacute T waves. I'm having some breathlessness too, but my heartbeat is at 58. The TIPI probability of ACI came out as 9. I'm really hoping you could help me understand what all of this means and if it's something I should be really worried about. Would love some guidance on this!

I'm feeling kind of worried. I don't have any intense pain in my chest or heart, but it feels like something weird is going on with my heart. Whenever this happens, I end up drinking a lot of water until I fall asleep. What's also freaking me out is there's swelling under my left collarbone. This whole thing makes me feel weaker and more scared. What's going on?

I'm having a bit of a concern with my blood pressure. It was usually around 135 over 95 with my automatic blood pressure machine, so I started taking Rauwolfia Q homeopathy medicine, about 8 drops twice a day. Now my BP has dropped to below normal levels, and even though I stopped the medicine three days ago, it's still low. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy and a bit shaky sometimes. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

It seems like your blood pressure is still a bit on the lower side after stopping the medicine. It's important to monitor your blood pressure regularly. For now, try staying hydrated, having small, frequent meals, and avoiding sudden position changes. If the vertigo and shakiness persist, it's best to consult your doctor for further guidance.
