I've been having this tightness in my chest and feeling really tired, plus I'm not sleeping well at all. It's also making my mood all over the place and I'm dealing with some shortness of breath too. Could these symptoms be connected? Should I be concerned or is this something that will pass on its own?

You may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or stress. To help with these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter medication such as lorazepam (Ativan) 1mg as needed for anxiety. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises or meditation, may also be beneficial. If symptoms persist, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

What steps should we be taking? Is there a concern about ischemic heart disease with these symptoms, especially given the normal echo report?
Neck Pain and Burping Symptoms _Possible Causes_ 1. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Burping and neck discomfort may be related to GERD, where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. 2. _Dysphagia_: Difficulty swallowing or a sensation of blockage in the neck could be causing your symptoms. 3. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Neck pain might be related to muscle strain or poor posture. _Recommendations_ 1. _Antacids or acid reducers_: Over-the-counter medications like antacids (Tums, Rolaids) or acid reducers (Zantac, Pepcid) may help alleviate GERD symptoms. 2. _Dietary changes_: Avoid trigger foods (spicy, fatty, or acidic), eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down after eating. 3. _Physical therapy_: Gentle neck stretches and exercises may help relieve musculoskeletal tension. 4. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a gastroenterologist to rule out underlying conditions. _When to Seek Immediate Attention_ 1. _Severe symptoms_: If you experience severe neck pain, difficulty swallowing, or vomiting blood, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm 18 and just got my ECG results which say sinus arrhythmia but I don't really understand what that means. My heart rate is 75 bpm, P is 97 ms, PR is 117 ms, QRS is 98 ms, QTQTc is at 352395 ms, and there's something about RV5 and SV1 being at 2.7031.245 mv. They noted it's a normal ECG, but I'm still a bit worried. Should I be concerned about any of these numbers?
Your ECG report indicates a normal heart rhythm with a diagnosis of sinus arrhythmia, which is a benign condition characterized by a variation in heart rate with breathing, and all other parameters, including PR, QRS, and QT intervals, are within normal limits, suggesting no underlying cardiac abnormalities, so you can be reassured that your heart is functioning normall
