I've been dealing with chest pain for the past six months, and it's been really worrying me. I've already had ECGs done five times, an echocardiogram, blood tests, and even an endoscopy, but they all came back normal. My physical activity seems fine, but the pain is there all day. I'm just trying to figure out what might be going ondo you have any thoughts or advice on what I should do next?

It's good that you have already undergone several tests to investigate the cause of your chest pain. Since your ECG, echocardiogram, blood tests, and endoscopy all came back normal, it's less likely to be related to the heart or gastrointestinal issues. Considering your symptoms have persisted for 6 months, it's important to explore other possible causes such as musculoskeletal issues or anxiety-related chest pain. I recommend trying a medication like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques or deep breathing exercises may help if anxiety is a contributing factor to your chest pain. If the pain continues, further evaluation by a specialist may be needed.

I'm 21 and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are a bit all over the place. It was 149 over 78 at one point, and then it changed to 109 over 70. My pulse rate also jumps around from 110 to 72. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's an issue or if this is normal for my age. Can you help me understand what's going on?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
