I've been having this odd pinching sensation on my left side, and my doctor suggested getting a 2D Echo and an ECG. They said everything came back normal, but now I'm finding it harder to breathe. I'm not really sure what's going on. Can anyone offer a second opinion on this? I've got my 2D Echo and ECG reports attached.

Based on the symptoms you are experiencing and the normal results of your 2d Echo and Ecg, it is possible that you may be dealing with a respiratory issue. I recommend trying an inhaler such as Salbutamol (Ventolin) 100mcg, 2 puffs as needed for shortness of breath. Additionally, you can consider using a steroid inhaler like Fluticasone (Flovent) 100mcg, 2 puffs twice a day to help with any underlying inflammation in the airways. It would also be beneficial to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and possible pulmonary function tests.

It's hard to breathe and my heart starts beating really fast. My blood pressure is on the high side too, usually around 135100, and I have a fatty liver. What should I do about all this?

My brother had angioplasty about a month ago, and lately, he's been experiencing frequent nosebleeds. It's worrying because whenever he sneezes or coughs, blood comes out of his nose and mouth. He's currently taking blood thinners and anticoagulant medicines for blood pressure. Is this a normal reaction, or should we be concerned?
That could be due to anticoagulant therapy,need to switch or reduce the dose of anticoagulats,visit your doctor for the same
