I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest, and I found out that my ESR is 25. My vitamin D3 level is really low at 3.75. I got a CT scan of my lungs, and everything came back normal. I'm curious if taking vitamin D3 supplements will help with this chest pain, or do you think I should see a cardiologist about it?

I've been having chest pain and got a 2D echo, ECG, blood work, and an X-ray done. The doctor said everything looks normal, but I noticed some black marks on the left side of the diaphragm in the X-ray. Could you tell me what these might be? I'm a bit concerned.

Diaphragmatic tumour,hernia,birth trauma ,surgical trauma ,thyroid disease and auto-immune disease are some of the causes..A dermatologist opinion is advised.

I'm worried because my pulse rate has been really high even when I'm just restinglike around 105 to 115. Also, for the past three days, I've been having shortness of breath, and I know I have mild asthma, but I'm not using my inhaler right now. What can I do to lower my pulse rate to normal?

start using inhaler duolin and start steam inhalation

I'm feeling really anxious because I'm going for an echocardiogram soon, and I'm worried that my heartbeat might increase during the test. Do you think it's okay for me to take Cipla 10 before the echo? Will it affect the results in any way?

no get it tested without medications
