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'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing this clicking sound in my chest with every heartbeat, especially when lying down. It's actually loud enough that other people can hear it too. Could it be related to the small hole in my heart that's currently closing? I'm really not sure what's going on, and its got me kind of worried. What do you think this might be?

ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the pt.

I'm currently taking two medications, amlodipine besylate 2.5 mg and hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg, to manage my blood pressure. I was thinking about starting a dietary vitamin supplement and I'm worried if there could be any interactions with these meds. Can you give me some advice on whether I should be cautious about combining them?

Vitamin D supplements are generally safe to take with amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide. However, it is always best to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement to ensure there are no potential interactions with your current medications.
