I've been having this really awful chest pain for about a month now, and it sometimes feels like my heartbeat is a bit off. After doing a bunch of research, I think it might be esophageal spasms. I went to the ER twice, and they said my EKG and heart monitor were fine. My doctor gave me muscle relaxers, which help with the spasms, but I still cant shake this terrible feeling in my chest. My blood pressure seems okay, it's usually around 120 over 86. I keep feeling my pulse all down my chest and arms, and its been really hard to get any sleep. Could there be something else going on that Im missing?

I've been experiencing pain on the left side of my chest and in my left arm for a few days now, and I'm starting to get really worried. I went ahead and got an ECG, echo, and TMT done. I've attached all the reports here. Do you think this could be related to my heart? Which specialist should I consult about this? I'm really anxious about what's going on.

Based on the symptoms you described and the tests you have done, it is important to rule out any heart-related issues. The ECG, echo, and TMT reports will provide valuable information to determine the cause of your chest pain and left arm pain. Considering your symptoms and the tests done, it is advisable to start taking Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent any potential heart issues. Additionally, you should consult a Cardiologist for a detailed evaluation and further management. It is important to follow up with the Cardiologist regularly and adhere to their treatment plan.

I've been dealing with high bp since 2017 and have been taking medscinod and nebicard. Everything was stable until I gained around 10kgs after getting married, and now my bp is often spiking to 140150 and 9095. I've started incorporating some physical activity and diet control into my routine. Do you think I should consider changing my medications along with these lifestyle changes?
