Occasional Chest Pain Causing Breathing Difficulty. No Relief With Rantac. Help?
hello sir, my name is binoy and iam 35 years old.my problem is i had a pain some times in my left chest ..i got disturbed when i breathing .i take the e c g and its normal. i consulted a phisician, and take a 4 day course of two type of tablets.one is rantac 150 and i did nt remember the other.i feel still the same problem.
i am unable to analyse your problem completely as you have not disclosed the following details , your type of life, your addictions -- if any , any co- morbid condition like hypertension, diabetes and others. These are necessary to come to a significant conclusion . You have mentioned your baseline ECG is normal and hence there is no cause of you to panic . An isolated episode of on and off chest pain non radiating in character and diffuse can be attributed to dyspepsia/indigestion and in that case your doctor have given you correct medications . Incase if it is not helping you please go back to your doctor and he will do the necessary adjustments. Just in case you smoke frequently and your resting blood pressure is high and as your age is above 30 years please get an echocardiography done to rule out cardiac ailments. i hope i have hepled you in clearing your doubts . Take care
Hi thanks for your question
You have pain left side of chest and difficulty in breathing.
your ECG is nomeal and you have taken tab rantidine150mg with no relief.
Pain left side of chest could either be due to heart problems or problems with your lung.
Normal ECG doesn' rule out all that you don't have any heart problems.You need through work up for any heart problems and any problems related to your lungs.
stomach disorders for which you have been prescribed medicine can give rise to pain chest but will not cause breathing difficulty
Hope i answered your question.
