I've noticed when I'm lying down that I can really feel my heartbeat in my left chest and sometimes even in other parts of my body. I've already had an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal. My anxiety has been under control, but this is still happening. Could it be something else or is this just something normal?

can be due to benign causes such as heightened awareness of your heartbeat (palpitations) or muscle twitching. This can be exacerbated by anxiety. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to reduce the sensation of palpitations. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga can also be beneficial in managing these symptoms.

View allI've been feeling really off for the past 10 days. I get this suffocating sensation that eases up only after taking a few deep breaths, but it comes back when I lay down to sleep. It's like a mild pain on my left chest that feels kind of muscular, and it also affects the left side of my neck and shoulder. My schedule's a mess 'cause I work in ITI'm up till like 3 AM and sleep around 1 PM. I haven't had any severe pain, but I do get this sudden feeling where its like Im not getting enough oxygen. There's no history of heart or pulmonary issues in my family. Should I be worried about this?
It sounds like you're experiencing occasional breathlessness, which may be related to muscle strain or poor posture, especially with your irregular sleep schedule. It's important to monitor these symptoms, but considering the absence of severe pain or a family history of heartlung issues, it might also be linked to stress or sleep disruption. However, I recommend consulting a doctor for a thorough evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions.

I'm 35 and I've been having this pain in the middle of my chest since last evening. It feels like it's right in my chest cage and it gets worse when I move around. I'm not having any trouble breathing, which is a bit of a relief. Before this, I had some lower back pain, but that kind of went away on its own. And just last week, I had a stomach infection and took antibiotics like augmentin and medications like pantoprazole and meftal Combiflam based on the symptoms. Can you help me figure out what's going on and suggest a treatment? I'm a bit concerned about this chest pain.

I'm really worried about the low blood pressure issue. Even though we're trying everything like ORS, his blood pressure just stays low. It's been causing him a lot of problems like feeling weak and dizzy, and I'm not sure what else we can do since it's not getting better. Are there any medications that could fix this problem for good, so he can stop feeling so awful?
