What causes palpitations with chest pain and shortness of breath?
Answered by
Would it be suggested to get off the Pill and consider a different contraceptive method?
I just completed my 4th pack of Microgestin Fe 1/20 and began my 5th pack on Friday.
I also forgot to mention that earlier that week on Monday, I began to run in the mornings. I ran Monday and Wednesday. The sun was very much out by then it was hot, so I don't know if that may have anything to do with this. I do remember being very out of breath, but that should be normal since I was pretty active growing up and knew that was expected.
Other tests are advised...
Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
I have gone through your medical history and feel sorry for the situation you are in.
Your symptoms are indicative for panic attack/anxiety. However, as you are taking Microgestin, I suggest to run further tests to exclude deep vein thrombosis, cardiac problems and pulmonary embolism:
- ECG, cardiac echo
- Chest X-ray
- respiratory function test
If everything is ok, then, most probably is due to aggravation of anxiety disorder when using Microgestin.
Hope it helped! Do let me know if I can assist you further!

So, regardless of whether or not I was on the placebo week of Microgestin, this is a side effect? Would you recommend I look into other contraceptive methods? If so, would you happen to know what could be better for someone experiencing these conditions?
Condoms&IUD...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Yes, with the hormonal changes, Microgestin might influenza heart beats.
The idea is to implement methods that cannot interfere with your heart function. Therefore, I would recommend:
- condoms
- IUD
The do not have hormones or other chemical that can interfere with heart rate, so, you won't face fast heart beats.
Hope it answered to your query!

MD I am 5 10 , 195 lbs, 24 years old male.... So sunday night I was getting a scratchy throat, but I was not worried, woke up next morning and had a sore throat, went to work it was manageable, asked fellow employees why my throat was only sore on one side. Monday night I started to get cold chills and a fever..Went to bed and woke up next morning with an even worse sore throat on my right side only. I was tired and had body aches, so I thought it was the flu or something, took some pain killers and went to work, Tuesday evening at work I was getting even more cold chills the night before , so I went home early and took a hot bath to warm me up, some tylenol and tried to sleep. Wednesday morning, same routine, right side of throat hurts even worse, where I can barely swallow liquids with out my throat hurting. So I took some thera-flu the prescribed dosage and continue to take it but still no results, but I happened to look in the mirror with a flashlight right next to my right tonsil it looks as if it got infected and there was white stuff stuck in there. I tried to remove it with a q-tip but was unsuccessful, not only did it hurt but it felt as if it was stuck in. Thursday I went to a doctor and she said I have some sort of pharyngitis, pre scribed me some amoxicillin and asked if I have post nasal drip, not that I know of.... But I have been following the directions and still now it is friday woke up pain in my throat on my right side only and I havent any real food since sunday... Am I not giving the amoxicillin enough time, if not if my throat continues to be in pain what s next?
MD My 20 year old daughter was recently on 1 week of Augmentin for flu like symptoms, with a fever ranging from 103-100+ for 5 days (fever broke and has stayed down since last Friday). She finished the antibiotics on Sunday and has since developed a rash that began on her hands and feet and has continued to spread to her arm and legs. It is not blister like nor is it on her torso or face. It does itch and over the counter cortisone cream isn t helping Could this be an allergic reaction? or due to the fever? Thanks in advance for your help! She had taken a Z pack before the augmentin
