1282225 tn?1272140188 Haven't crossed that road yet, still working with my primary doctor since I had to switch from my previous one. She laughed at me, so that made me switch. I've only had the non stop chest tightness for the past 3 weeks, I just don't know.
Avatar f tn attacks in my life, both related to cat allergy. This past spring I was having chest tightness, SOB, and reduced exercise tolerance in response to pollen. Went for a PFT...... FVC 109% (pre and post), FEV1 109%(pre)-112%(post) FEV!/FVC 83%(pre) 86%(post) So far normal. Here's the kicker...FEF 25-75 shows a 15% increase post albuterol, and MVV goes from 111%-125% (12%). I also felt better after the nebulizer.
245504 tn?1224099316 Think hard because it often takes very little to pull and/or strain a muscle. Does anything help it go away? Heat? Massage? An aspirin? When you say "intermittent," do you notice this more after you've done something physical? This could very easily have started off as a small muscle pull, and due to your current bout of hypochondria, it has now become something far more serious and naturally your anxiety is going to kick in and the cycle begins.
Avatar m tn They always rush me out - saying there is no problem. I wake up every day with a tightness in my chest that feels like its impacting my heart. So I decided to start taking: https://shoppopeyes.com/en/products/ballistic-labs-big-boy-293g This powder seems to have a powerful blend of ingredients that are designed to help with cardiovascular problems. I believe the root cause of the scrotal tightness is a lack of proper blood flow. After taking it for a few days.
Avatar m tn s agp I've started having some seriously annoying arrhytmia's which my doctor prescribed me a betablocker for. The beta blockers helps to keep things in check, BUT... everyday i suffer from tightness in the chest. I DO have muskoskeletal chestpain all around my chest when I press my ribs with my finger (i'm kind of skinny). But, there's a different kind of chestpain which sometimes covers the complete upper part of my left chest.
Avatar m tn Does anyone have any suggestions for relief from chest tension? I experience chest tightness and tension, almost nervousness of my chest. Breathing exercises don't seem to help. It usually sets in during the afternoon, and can last for several hours.
Avatar m tn t eat much and not sleeping well, reason why was that i was worried about pain that was in my testicle but found out that is was a epidyimal cyst and that it was nothing to worry about. Now i am back to my routine and seem to be having some chest tightness. I am wondering if it was from all the stress i was putting myself under or is it probably from my ablation and it is just healing? Idk I go see the doctor who performed my ablation on friday.

Avatar f tn Week 1-sore throat, fatigue, weakness, couldn’t get out of bed, chest tightness, slight cough. Went to doctor and was diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumonia and was given doxycycline and steroids. Week 2-got so weak I ended up in the ER. They said it’s just part of the illness and to keep up with antibiotics. On week 2.5 I began vomiting but only a couple times.

Avatar f tn I have tightness in the chest, feel like crying, have palpitations, and have trouble swallowing. Before I went to the endocrinologist, I went to my GP to get something for flagging libido and painful sex. He put me on 1 gram of Premarin for 2 weeks and then 1 gram 2x week. My question is, could the Premarin have given a false reading? I had the lab right after first taking it for 2 weeks solid. My endocrinologist suspects Hashimoto's because of my symptoms: dry skin, weight gain, fatigue.
Avatar f tn I have been coughing up phlegm but it is more of a liquid. The tightness will last for around 10-15 minutes and then go away completely with little to no signs of it. If I use my inhaler it will go away almost instantly, but in the past my asthma was almost non existent and I did not have to use my inhaler. I went to the doctor weeks ago to get treated but they said I looked fine and gave me antibiotics and told me to keep using the inhaler.
Avatar f tn -Chest tightness and shortness of breath is worse when I am sitting down inside of a building even my apartment. -I feel better when I walk around outside, sometimes that makes the symptoms go away. -Also, I feel better when I exercise. Doesn't matter if I am inside a fitness center or outside. -Chest tightness feels better when I put my hand on the part of my chest that feels tight and apply light pressure. -Chest tightness is worse when I lay on my side at night.

I was given 2 rounds of ANTI-BIOTICS and also steroids.It is incredibly frustrating as like yourself I am a bit of a fitness finatic.The question when will it go away?? Have you stopped exercising?? let me know how you are getting on.

Avatar n tn I am sixteen years old. I am an asthmatic, although it rarely troubles me and I use my inhaler on a very rare basis. I have been on and off sick with the flu and I'm relatively sure I haven't recovered one hundred percent. However, lately I have begun to feel a significant tightness of my chest - to the point where it's panicking. There is also pain in the left side of my chest and the sensation of pins and needles.
Avatar f tn Did the doctor examine your daughter's throat and chest? Has your daughter been tested to see if she has asthma? Pseudoephedrine is used to treat nasal and sinus congestion, or congestion of the Eustachian tubes that drain fluid from the inner ears. Prednisone is a corticosteroid. It prevents the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation and also suppresses the immune system.

Avatar f tn Hi I am wondering if any of you have experienced chest tightness, or funny feeling in the pit of your stomach associated with withdrawals. I am on day 6 of a massive decrease in dose (i'm tapering). At about the same time everyday (before I would take the norco) I feel a tightening in my chest. My pulse and blood pressure are fine??? Is this common for withdrawal? What can I do to make it better? I'm trying not to take any ativan for it. Thank you any support will help.

Avatar m tn The results indicated highly elevated cholesterol levels, but the GP dismissed it saying that probably the nurse practitioner did not administer the test right and given how skinny I was this was just not possible ! He said that my chest tightness was probably due to stress, and that I should just do some Yoga !! At some point last year, I finally decided to get it checked out again from a different doctor.
