Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your chest heaviness and nausea is because of indigestion, gastric issue, or from stress and depression. EKG and USG is normal so no organic cause is present. For better digestion syrup like digene can be prescribed. Simethicone will relieve gas which is a content of syrup. Consume more fruits and drink more water.
For depression suitable drug like fluoxetine is prescribed. Yoga and exercise is beneficial. Also behavioural counselling can be done for depression. Consult a physician for examination with keeping all this in mind.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
