I've been noticing some strange smells for the past monthmost foods just don't smell right to me. It hasn't gone away, and on top of that, I've been dealing with chest pains for the last couple of days, especially when I lie down to sleep. Do you think I should see a doctor about this? Also, why do things smell so weird to me? Plus, I'm feeling really tense all the time.

I'm really worried because my husband keeps having this slight pain and tightness in the center of his chest. It's especially bothersome when he coughs or takes a deep breath during these episodes. It's not happening all the time, but I'm not sure if we should investigate heart problems or something else. There aren't any other symptoms to go off of. What should we do?

I've been having this weird pain and heaviness in my lower chest whenever Im alone, like when Im outside by myself or just at home. It starts after a while, and then I get this mild shortness of breath, and my pulse goes up to like 105. I had an X-ray, CT pulmonary angiogram, ECG, and 2D echo, but they all came back normal. Also, when I lie down, my feet feel really heavy. Any idea what's going on?
