I've been having this really hard time breathing and there's this weird feeling in my chest where my heart is. Sometimes, it feels like I'm about to take my last breath, and it's really scary. I have no clue what's causing all this. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm dealing with this constant dull ache right in the center of my chest since last night. It flared up and burned for a bit, got worse, then eased up again. It's kinda odd because only this area hurts, and nowhere else. There's no pressure or tightness, so my chest feels pretty free otherwise. At one point, the pain moved up to my upper abdomen but then came back to the center. It's like a small spot of pain, like the size of a dot or maybe a little bigger. Should I be worried about this or is it nothing urgent?

This type of chest pain that shifts and is described as a burning sensation can sometimes be related to acid reflux or heartburn. I recommend taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums or Maalox to help with the burning sensation. Additionally, you can try avoiding spicy or acidic foods that may trigger the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to seek medical attention for further evaluation.

I've been having left chest pain for the past two weeks and also feel this pulsating sensation in my stomach. I'm worried because I have high blood pressure too. Initially, I was thinking of getting a 2D echo for my chest pain, but now I'm wondering if I should also get a 2D scan for my abdomen to check on my abdominal aorta. Do you think that's necessary, or should I be considering a CT scan for my stomach instead? Any advice would be really helpful.

A 2D echocardiogram is primarily used to evaluate the heart, so it may not provide detailed information about the pulsating sensation in your stomach. For your stomach symptoms, a CT scan of the abdomen may be more appropriate to assess the abdominal aorta and other structures in the abdomen. Given your history of high blood pressure and chest pain, it is crucial to rule out any potential issues with the abdominal aorta. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action and to discuss the need for further imaging studies such as a CT scan of the abdomen.
